NOTES
(a) All distances are from edge to edge. Where surface waters are involved, the distance shall be measured from the high water line.
(b) See Subsection Utah Administrative Code R317-4-6.14 for setback requirements.
(c) All distances shall be consistent with Rules Utah Administrative Code R309-600 and R309-605.
(d) Compliance with separation requirements does not guarantee acceptable water quality in every instance. Where geological or other conditions warrant, greater distances may be required by the Southeastern Utah Health Department.
(e) For ungrouted wells and springs the distance shall be 200 feet. A private or individual well is considered to be grouted if it meets the construction standards required in Utah Administrative Code Section R655-4-11, which requires a minimum 30-foot deep grout surface seal. Private or individual wells not constructed to this minimum standard are considered to be ungrouted. Although this distance shall be generally adhered to as the minimum required separation distance, exceptions maybe approved by the Southeastern Utah Health Department, taking into account geology, hydrology, topography, existing land use agreements, consideration of the drinking water source protection requirements, protection of public health and potential for pollution of water source. Any person proposing to locate an absorption system closer than 200 feet to an individual or nonpublic ungrouted well or spring must submit a report to the Southeastern Utah Health Department that considers the above items. In no case shall the Southeastern Utah Health Department grant approval for an onsite wastewater system to be closer than 100 feet from an ungrouted well or a spring.
(f) If the water supply line is for a public water supply, the separation distance shall comply with the requirements of Utah Administrative Code Rule R309-550. No culinary water service line shall pass through any portion of an absorption area.
(g) Lining or enclosing watercourses with an acceptable impervious material may permit a reduction in the separation requirement. In situations where the bottom of a canal or watercourse is at a higher elevation than the ground in which the absorption system is to be installed, a reduction in the distance requirement may be justified, but each case shall be decided on its own merits by the Southeastern Utah Health Department.
(h) Horizontal setback between a deep wall trench or seepage pit and a foundation of any building is at least 20 feet.
(i) The Southeastern Utah Health Department may reduce the separation distance, if it can be shown that the effluent will not enter the drain, but each case must be decided on its own merits by the Southeastern Utah Health Department. In no case shall the Southeastern Utah Health Department grant approval for an absorption area to be closer than 20 feet.
(j) This setback may be reduced if a 53 foot reference line originating at the bottom of the distribution pipe, sloped at 35% below horizontal, will not daylight or intersect the ground surface.

4.2.14 I-2 Heavy Industrial Zone
- Legislative Intent. The I-2 General Industrial zone has been established for the purpose of providing a place where firms engaged in mining and related activities, and/or heavy manufacturing, processing and fabrication of goods and materials, can locate with minimum conflict or deleterious effect on surrounding properties and the natural environment, and with a high degree of protection from encroachment of residential and commercial uses. It is also the intent of this zone to promote the economic well-being of the people within the County and to broaden the tax base.
The zone is characterized by a mixture of industrial establishments, which, because of the nature of the operation, may produce hazards, nuisances, or disturbances if located in close proximity to urbanized areas. In general, these zones are situated on relatively flat land, with ready access to major highways and/or railroad tracks.
Some of the territory designated will consist of open land intended for future industrial development or as a buffer to adjacent development. Accordingly, some of the territory within the zone will be used for agriculture or grazing activities.
Representative of the uses and activities within the zone are manufacturing plants, mines and pits and mineral processing and loading facilities, electric power generating plants, metal fabrication, automobile wrecking and salvage yards, animal by-product plants, petroleum refineries, and concrete batching plants.
The specific requirements necessary for the accomplishment of the purposes of the zone are hereinafter set forth:

4.2.16 WS Water Shed Zone
- Declaration of Legislative Intent. The WS Water Shed Zone (formerly CE-1 Zone) covers the canyons, mountains, and other lands above 7,000 feet in elevation, and of environmental concern in the County. Because of limitations imposed by topography, climate, soil conditions and other natural features, use of the land within this zone has been limited primarily to livestock grazing and related uses, wildlife habitat, certain outdoor recreation activities and facilities, and limited mineral extraction.
The land within this zone has functioned historically as part of the watershed for a majority of the irrigation, culinary, and industrial water supply for the Price River Valley and East Carbon City area. It is also recognized that the landscape is constantly changing due to natural occurrences such as fire, flood, insect infestations and landslides. Human activities such as logging, grazing, hunting, camping and other uses affect the landscape, and are accepted as normal in this zone. Experience has shown this watershed area to be fragile; its confirmed function as a water source is of critical importance to the County.

4.2.17 MR Mountain Range Zone
- Declaration of Legislative Intent. The MR Mountain Range Zone (formerly CE-2 Zone) covers the mountain lands of the County generally which, because of the presence of less severe physical conditions, have experienced historic settlement and are of less critical water shed concern than the WS Zone, and are suitable for limited levels of development activity. These lands are situated over the elevation of 7,000 feet.
Historically, lands within this zone have been used for livestock grazing, ranching, mining, logging, and other productive uses. These lands also function as a part of the watershed that supplies nearly all the irrigation and culinary water for the Price River Valley and East Carbon City areas.
Because of a combination of factors, including accessibility from existing roads, railroads, availability of water, suitable topographical, soil and vegetative conditions, and aesthetic attractions, the territory included within this zone is capable of accommodating irrigated agricultural and certain mining, recreational and summer housing developments without due adverse effect on the quality of the watershed, provided that such developments are constructed and maintained under regulated conditions.
The specific regulations necessary for the accomplishment of the purposes as outlined above are hereinafter set forth.

4.2.18 SL Scofield Lakeshore Zone
- Legislative Intent. The primary purpose in establishing the SL Scofield Lakeshore Zone (formerly S-1 Zone) is to promote and protect the water quality of the lakeshore and prevent the degradation of the natural and social environment in the Scofield Reservoir area.
Accordingly, the major purpose of the SL Scofield Lakeshore Zone is to establish standards for the further filling in or expanding of existing developed areas adjacent to the Scofield shoreline, and a mechanism for implementing those standards.
Development in this zone is characterized by a mixture of conventional, log and factory built dwellings on relatively small individual lots that are served by approved culinary water and sewage disposal facilities.
Because of the significance of the reservoir as the principle source of culinary, industrial and irrigation water for the Price River Valley, and also as a prime water-based recreation facility, a major focus of the requirements of this zone are directed toward the preservation of the quality of both surface and underground waters in the reservoir area.

4.2.19 PV Pleasant Valley Zone
- Legislative Intent. The intent in establishing the PV Pleasant Valley Zone (formerly S-2 Zone) is to protect the water quality of Scofield Reservoir and surrounding watersheds of Pleasant Valley, and to protect the private property rights and natural values of the Scofield reservoir areas.
Accordingly, the major purpose of the PV Pleasant Valley Zone is to establish standards for development of the Pleasant Valley. A mixture of existing mobile homes, new factory-built homes, conventional-built homes, and log construction characterizes development in this zone. Because of the significance of the reservoir as the major source of culinary, irrigation and industrial water for Carbon County, and a prime water-based recreation area, this zone is directed toward the preservation of surface and underground water quality, and the preservation of open space.

4.2.25 AOZ Airport Overlay Zone
- Legislative Intent. The purpose of this zone is restricting the height of structures and objects of natural growth and otherwise regulating the use of property, in the vicinity of the Carbon County Regional Airport by creating the appropriate zones and establishing the boundaries thereof; providing for changes in the restrictions and boundaries of such zones; defining certain terms used herein, referring to the Carbon County Regional Airport FAR Part 77 Airspace Drawing and Off Airport Land Use Drawing which are incorporated in and made a part of this ordinance providing for enforcement and establishing an Administrative Hearing Officer; and imposing penalties. All land uses surrounding the Carbon County regional Airport shall comply with Ordinance No. 418, Adopted July 16, 2008.
It is also been found that an obstruction has the potential for endangering the lives and property of users of the Carbon County Regional Airport and property or occupants of land in its vicinity; that an obstruction may affect existing and future instrument approach minimums at the Carbon County Regional Airport; and that an obstruction may reduce the size of areas available for the landing, takeoff and maneuvering of aircraft, thus tending to destroy or impair the utility of the Carbon County Regional Airport and the public investment therein. It is also found that the prevention of the creation of establishment of hazards to air navigation, the elimination, removal, alteration or mitigation of hazards to air navigation or the marking and lighting of construction are public purposes for which Carbon County may raise and expend public funds and acquire land or interests in land.
- Height Restrictions. In certain zones which include all of the land lying beneath the approach surfaces, transitional surfaces, horizontal surfaces and conical surfaces as they apply to the Carbon County Regional Airport. Such zones are shown on the Carbon County Regional Airport Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 77 Airspace Drawing on file in the Office of the County Clerk.
Except as otherwise provided in this ordinance, no structure shall be erected, altered or maintained and no tree shall be allowed to grow in any zone created by this ordinance to a height in excess of the applicable height limit herein established for such zone. Such applicable height limitations are hereby established for each of the zones in question as follows:
- Precision Instrument Runway Zone – Area having slopes fifty (50) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the end of and at the same elevation as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal distance of 10,000 feet along the extended runway centerline, then slopes forty (40) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the end of and at the same elevation as the first 10,000 feet and extending to a horizontal distance of 40,000 feet along the extended runway centerline.
- Non Precision Instrument Runway Approach Zone (Larger than utility runway) – Having slopes thirty-four (34) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the end of and at the same elevation as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal distance of 10,000 feet along the extended runway centerline.
- Non precision Instrument Runway Approach Zone (utility aircraft) – Having slopes twenty (20) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the end of and at the same elevation as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal distance of 5,000 feet along the extended runway centerline.
- Visual Runway Approach Zone - Slopes twenty (20) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the end of and at the same elevation as the primary surface and extending to a horizontal distance of 5,000 feet along the extended runway centerline.
- Transitional Zone - Slopes seven (7) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation as the primary surface and the approach surface and extending to a height of 150 feet above the airport elevation. In addition to the foregoing, there are established height limits sloping seven (7) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation as the approach surface and extending to where they intersect the conical surface. Where the precision instrument runway approach zone projects beyond the conical zone, there are established height limits sloping seven (7) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the sides of and at the same elevation as the approach surface and extending a horizontal distance of 5,000 feet measured at 90-degree angles to the extended runway centerline.
- Horizontal Zone- Established at 150 feet above the airport elevation.
- Conical Zone - Slopes twenty (20) feet outward for each foot upward beginning at the periphery of the horizontal zone and at 150 feet above the airport elevation and extending to a height of 350 feet above the airport elevation.
- Compatible Land Uses. For the purpose of regulating the development of noise sensitive land uses to promote compatibility between the Airport and the surrounding land uses, to protect the Airport from incompatible development and to promote the health, safety and general welfare of property users, the controlled area of the Carbon County Regional Airport is divided into Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning districts. The Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning districts established herein shall be known as:
Off Airport Land Use Zone Number
Zoning District Name
1
No Development
2
Limited Development

- Off Airport Land Use. The boundaries of the Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning Districts set out and delineated upon the Carbon County Regional Airport Off Airport Land Use Drawing of Carbon County, Utah, said Off Airport Land Use Drawing being adopted by reference and made a part of this chapter as fully as if the same were set forth herein in detail.
- The boundaries shall be scaled from the nearest runway end shown on the map and the boundaries shall be scaled from the nearest physical feature shown on the map.
- Boundaries may be scaled from the nearest platted lot line as shown on the map.
- Distances not specifically indicated on the original Off Airport Land Use Drawing shall be determined by a scaled measurement on the map.
- Where physical features on the ground differ from the information shown on the official Off Airport Land Use Drawing or when there arises a question as to how or where a parcel of property is zoned and such questions cannot be resolved by the application of Section V-3A, the property shall be considered to be classified as the most restrictive Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning District.
- Where a parcel of land lies within more than one (1) Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning District, the zone within which each portion of the property is located shall apply individually to each portion of the development.
- Use of Land and Buildings. Within the Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning Districts as defined herein, no land shall hereafter be used and no structure or other object shall hereafter be erected, altered, converted or modified other than for those compatible land uses permitted by underlying comprehensive zoning districts, as specified in the Carbon County Land Use Code. Additional land uses are prohibited in the Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning Districts, regardless of underlying zoning, as set forth in the Land Use Compatibility Table included on sheet 3a Off Airport Land Use Data Sheet.
- Where any use of prohibited land and buildings set forth in Section V-4A conflicts with any use of land and buildings set forth in the Carbon County Land Use Code, as an allowed use on the Zoning District Map, this chapter shall apply.
- Section V-4 does not apply to property within the official boundaries of the airport.
- Where specified on the Airport Compatible Land Use Table, the property owner shall dedicate, in advance of receiving a building permit, an aviation clear zone easement to Carbon County, Utah. The purpose of this easement shall be to establish a maximum height restriction on the use of property and to hold the public harmless for any damages caused by noise, vibration, fumes, dust, fuel, fuel particles or other effects that may be caused by the operation of aircraft landing at, taking off from or operating on or at, public airport facilities.
- Additional Land Use Regulations.
- Within Carbon County, Utah the more restrictive of the Carbon County Land Use Code or Section V-4A, shall apply to the development of all property covered by the Off Airport Land Use Drawing.
- On property within the Off Airport Land Use Drawing jurisdiction, but outside the jurisdictional limits of Carbon County, Utah, Section V-4A shall apply to formulate land use recommendations or responses to land use comment requests from other jurisdictions.
- When a provision of this section conflicts with any airport height hazard restrictions, the most restrictive provision shall apply.
- Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter or other chapter of the Carbon County Land Use Code, no use may be made of land, water or structures within any zone established by this chapter in such a manner as to create electrical interference with navigational signals or radio communication between the airport and aircraft, make it difficult for pilots to distinguish between airport lights and others or result in glare in the eyes of pilots using the airport; impair visibility in the vicinity of the airport; create bird strike hazards or otherwise in any way endanger or interfere with the landing, taking off or flight operations of aircraft utilizing the airport.
- When a subdivision plat is required for any property within an Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning District or within an area shown on the FAR Part 77 Airspace Drawing for the Carbon County Regional Airport, the property owner shall dedicate an aviation hazard easement to Carbon County over and across that property. This easement shall establish a height restriction on the use of the property and hold the public harmless from any damages caused by noise, vibration, fumes, dust, fuel, fuel particles or other effects that may be caused by the operation of aircraft taking off, landing or operating on or near the Carbon County Regional Airport.
- Non-Conforming Uses -Regulations Not Retroactive. The regulations prescribed by this ordinance shall not be construed to require the removal, lowering or other change or alteration of any structure or tree not conforming to the regulations as of the effective date of this ordinance or otherwise interfere with the continuance of nonconforming use. Nothing contained herein shall require any change in the construction, alteration or intended use of any structure, the construction or alteration of which was begun prior to the effective date of this ordinance and is diligently prosecuted. Nonconforming land uses existing as of the effective date of this ordinance may be modified such that 1) only existing structures may be enlarged or expanded; 2) that they do not result in any greater violation of height restrictions; and 3) a variance in accordance with Section VII-4 is obtained.
- Nonconforming Uses Abandoned or Destroyed. Whenever Carbon County determines that a nonconforming tree or structure has been abandoned or more than 80 percent torn down, physically deteriorated or decayed, no permit shall be granted that would allow such structure or tree to exceed the applicable height limit or otherwise deviate from the zoning regulations.
- Marking and Lighting and Obstruction Marking and Lighting. Notwithstanding the preceding provision of this section, the owner of any existing nonconforming structure or tree is hereby required to permit the installation, operation and maintenance thereon of such markers and lights as shall be deemed necessary by Carbon County to indicate to the operators of aircraft in the vicinity of the airport the presence of such airport obstruction. Such markers and lights shall be installed, operated and maintained at the expense of the Carbon County Regional Airport. Any permit or variance granted may, if such action is deemed advisable to effectuate the purpose of this ordinance and be reasonable in the circumstances, be so conditioned as to require the owner of the structure or tree in question to install, operate and maintain, at the owner's expense, such markings and lights as condition may require in accordance with FAA provisions.
- Permits and Future Uses. Except as specifically provided in A and B hereunder, no material change shall be made in the use of land, no structure shall be erected or otherwise established and no tree shall be planted in any zone hereby created unless a permit therefore shall have been applied for and granted. Each application for a permit shall indicate the purpose for which the permit is desired, with sufficient particularity to permit it to be determined whether the regulating use, structure or tree would conform to the regulations herein prescribed. An FAA Form 7460-1, Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration, shall accompany each application. If such determination is in the affirmative, the permit shall be granted. No permit for a use inconsistent with the provisions of this ordinance shall be granted unless a variance has been approved in accordance with Section VII, 4.
- In the area lying within the limits of the approach zone, transition zone, horizontal zone and conical zone, no permit shall be required by this ordinance for any tree or structure less than 200 feet above ground level which is also lower than an imaginary surface extending outward and upward at a slope of 100 feet horizontal for each 1 foot vertical beginning at the closest point of the closest runway. Nothing contained in any of the foregoing exceptions shall be construed as permitting or intending to permit any construction or alteration of any structure or growth of any tree in excess of any of the height limits established by this ordinance.
- Existing Uses. No permit shall be granted that would allow the establishment or creation of any obstruction or permit a nonconforming use, structure or tree to become a greater hazard to air navigation than it was on the effective date of this ordinance or any amendments thereto or than it is when the application for a permit is made. Except as indicated, all applications for such a permit shall be granted.
- Variances. Any person desiring to erect or increase the height of any structure or permit the growth of any tree or use property, not in accordance with the regulations prescribed in this ordinance, may apply to the Administrative Hearing Officer for a variance from such regulations. The application for variance shall be accompanied by a determination from the Federal Aviation Administration as to the effect of a proposal on the operation of air navigation facilities and the safe, efficient use of navigable airspace. Such variances shall be allowed where it is duly found that a literal application or enforcement of the regulations will result in unnecessary hardship and relief granted, will not be contrary to the public interest, will not create a hazard to air navigation, will do substantial justice and will be in accordance with the spirit of this ordinance.
Additionally, no application for variance to the requirements of this ordinance may be considered by the Administrative Hearing Officer unless a copy of the application has been furnished to Carbon County for advice as to the aeronautical effects of the variance. If Carbon County does not respond to the application within fifteen (15) days after receipt, the Administrative Hearing Officer may act on its own to grant or deny said application.

The boundaries of the Airport Compatible Land Use Overlay Zoning Districts set out herein are delineated upon the Carbon County Regional Airport Off Airport Land Use Drawing of Carbon County, Utah, said Off Airport Land Use Drawing being adopted by reference and made a part of this chapter as fully as if the same were set forth herein in detail.
- Additional Land Use Regulations. Within Carbon County, Utah the more restrictive of the Carbon County Land Use Code or Section V-4A, shall apply to the development of all property covered by the Off Airport Land Use Drawing. On property within the Off Airport Land Use Drawing jurisdiction, but outside the jurisdictional limits of Carbon County, Utah, Section V-4A shall apply to formulate land use recommendations or responses to land use comment requests from other jurisdictions. Whenever a provision of this section conflicts with any airport height hazard restrictions, the most restrictive provision shall apply.
- Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter or other chapter of the Carbon County Land Use Code, no use may be made of land, water or structures within any zone established by this chapter in such a manner as to create electrical interference with navigational signals or radio communication between the airport and aircraft, make it difficult for pilots to distinguish.
- Nothing contained in any of the foregoing exceptions shall be construed as permitting or intending to permit any construction or alteration of any structure or growth of any tree in excess of any of the height limits established by this Code.
