2 Colo. Code Regs. § 601-2-1.00

Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 11, June 10, 2024
Section 2 CCR 601-2-1.00 - STATEMENT OF BASIS AND PURPOSE AND STATUTORY AUTHORITY

These rules are adopted pursuant to § 43-1-506, C.R.S., which authorizes the Department to promulgate rules concerning junkyards in Colorado. The intent of these amendments is to update existing rules with regard to junkyards, to conform the scope of the rules to the current federal law, and to lessen the regulatory burden on local governments when possible. These rules apply to all areas within 1,000 feet of the nearest edge of the right-of-way and visible from the main-traveled way of all interstate highways systems. At the request of the Office of Legislative Legal Services, the Department of Transportation has included the language set forth in § 43-1-503, C.R.S., as Rule 3.02 , stating the exception for the need to apply for and obtain a junkyard permit. The new language clarifies that no permit need be obtained from the Department of Transportation if the property where the junkyard is located is zoned industrial under the authority of state law, or any of its political subdivisions. The other changes to these Rules are limited to numbering changes given the new Rule 3.02, and correction to font.
