This is a list of State and Federal permits and actions required during planning, development, construction, and
before operation of Nevada mines and mills. We hope it will help both individuals and companies through the
complex, often confusing regulatory maze - please understand that not all of these permits are necessarily
required for all operations.

Remember that in addition to State and Federal permits, County and City permits may be required. We have
attempted to include a general description of County and City permits necessary. As these may vary, it is
suggested you contact the local County Planning commission for specific requirements.

This list will be revised periodically, however, the user should be aware that there may be additional, new, or
revised regulations issued after this list was compiled. We welcome any additions and/or corrections, as well as
any suggestions on how to improve this list. For more information about permitting, contact: Nevada Division of
Minerals, 400 W. King Street, Suite 106, Carson City, Nevada 89703, (775) 684-7040 or e-mail to
