(a) A sand and gravel, borrow material, and
rip-rap rock lease or any divided interest therein may be relinquished by the
record title holder to the Board in the following manner:
(i) If no operations have been conducted
under the lease and no surface disturbance or damage has occurred on the land
to be relinquished, the lessee shall file with the Office a written statement
on a form provided by the Office that he wishes to relinquish the lease or
interest. The relinquishment shall become effective on the date and hour of
receipt by the Office or at some later date if specified.
(ii) If operations have been conducted under
the lease or surface disturbance or damage has occurred on land proposed to be
relinquished, the lessee shall file with the Office a statement on a form
provided by the Office that he wishes to relinquish the lease or interest.
Relinquishment shall not become effective until the land shall have been placed
in acceptable condition and the Department of Environmental Quality or such
other agency as may have jurisdiction has certified that the lands have been
adequately reclaimed or restored before the relinquishment is
effective.
(iii) Once a
relinquishment on state lands becomes effective, the lease may not be
reinstated. The lands shall be made available for lease as provided in Section
5 of this chapter.
