Sch 8 para 2
(1) Where development consisting of the winning and working of minerals or involving the deposit of refuse or waste materials is being carried out in, on or under any land, the conditions which an order under paragraph 1 may impose include a restoration condition. (2) If— (a) such an order includes a restoration condition, or (b) a restoration condition has previously been imposed in relation to the land by virtue of any provision of this Act, the order may also include any such aftercare condition as the planning authority think fit. (3) An order under paragraph 1 may grant planning permission for any development of the land to which the order relates, subject to such conditions as may be— (a) required by paragraph 1 of Schedule 3, or (b) specified in the order. (4) In a case where— (a) the use specified in an aftercare condition is a use for agriculture, (b) the land was in use for agriculture immediately before the development began or had previously been used for agriculture and had not been used for any authorised purpose since its use for agriculture ceased, and (c) the planning authority is aware of or can readily ascertain the physical characteristics of the land when it was last used for agriculture, the land is brought to the required standard when its physical characteristics are restored, so far as it is practicable to do so, to what they were when it was last used for agriculture. (5) In any other case where the use specified in an aftercare condition is a use for agriculture, the land is brought to the required standard when it is reasonably fit for that use.
