NRS 278.812 Review of applications approved by local authorities. [Effective until proclamation by Governor of withdrawal of California from Tahoe Regional Planning Compact or of finding by Governor that the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency has become unable to perform its duties or exercise its powers.]

1. When an application for approval of the development or construction of a business or recreational establishment subject to the provisions of NRS 278.780 to 278.828, inclusive, has been submitted to the appropriate local authority, and the local authority has made its final determination of approval, the application shall be referred forthwith to the Agency for review as to environmental impact and effect. The Agency shall consider each application on an individual basis and shall, by resolution, either approve, approve with conditions or disapprove each application within 30 days plus notice and publication time as provided in subsection 3. A resolution adopted by the Agency approving the application shall be required before the applicant may proceed with such development or construction.

2. The governing body shall adopt all necessary ordinances, rules, regulations and policies for the determination of environmental impact and effect, for the approval or disapproval of individual applications and for otherwise implementing the provisions of NRS 278.780 to 278.828, inclusive. Such ordinances, rules, regulations and policies shall include but need not be limited to criteria for determining the effect of each proposal upon the availability of services, public facilities and natural resources, and the capacity of the environment to tolerate additional development.

3. Whenever an application is referred to the Agency for review, the Agency shall take final action upon whether to approve, to require modification or to reject such application within 30 days after such application is delivered to the Agency, plus the 5-day notice and publication period required by subsection 2 of NRS 278.802. If the Agency does not take final action within such 30-day period plus notice and publication time, the application shall be deemed approved.

4. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 278.780 to 278.828, inclusive, Agency procedures shall be subject to the provisions of chapter 233B of NRS.
