§ 25199.5

(a) At the request of an applicant, the legislative body of a local agency shall, within 60 calendar days after the local agency has determined that an application for a land use decision for a hazardous waste facility project is complete, issue an initial written determination on whether the hazardous waste facility project is consistent with both of the following:

(1) The applicable local general plan and zoning ordinances in effect at the time the application was received.

(2) The county hazardous waste management plan authorized by Article 3.5 (commencing with Section 25135), if the plan is in effect at the time of the application.

(b) The local agency shall send a copy of the written determination made pursuant to subdivision (a) to the applicant.

(c) The determination required by subdivision (a) does not prohibit a local agency from making a different determination when the final land use decision is made, if the final determination is based on information which was not considered at the time the initial determination was made.
