AB 580: Surface mining: Metropolitan Water District of Southern California.

This bill amends and repeals a provision related to mining, specifically the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California's (MWD) master reclamation plan. The bill extends the operation of the provision until January 1, 2041, allowing the MWD to prepare and approve the plan for a longer period. The bill also makes legislative findings and declarations about the necessity of a special statute for the MWD. Additionally, the bill clarifies that no reimbursement is required for certain costs mandated by the state. The bill imposes a state-mandated local program to the extent it requires a local government to perform additional duties for a longer period.
