In any case where a proposed resource extraction operation (including extraction wells, surface and subsurface mining) will use county roads for the conveyance of extraction equipment or extracted products, and when in the opinion of the county engineer, the resource extraction operation would impact the county road to a degree that would likely cause the expenditure of additional maintenance funds, the applicant is to enter into an agreement with the county as provided by this section prior to the commencement of any resource extraction operations. When an agreement is required, the applicant shall execute such an agreement with the county engineering department to deposit into the county road fund a sum to be determined by the county engineer based upon the volume of resource being hauled over county roads as compensation for the increase in road use and road maintenance requirements generated by the project. (Ord. 2715 § 142 (part), 1995; Ord. 2592 § 9 (part), 1992)
