How many of you with remote claims have ever been visited by any government employee. I doubt they will be able to enforce sb670 anywhere that they can't drive right down to where you are working.

They used planes and environutz spotters,campers,hikers,fishermen and hunters. Environutz have a toll free hotline to turn you in. Also the CITIZENS PATROL wacko environutz run around looking to turn you in. It no longer matters where you are as real time info on line for them to zoom in and come visit. Big brother is watching with a cadre of friggn' insane radical environutz looking for you to be a featured hero--ya crawdad food mo'fo-John

I too have been contemplating a gravity reclaimator. Without the noise you'll be less likely to draw attention I suppose. No hookah limits what you can get to though.

You & another person, qualify as an “association”.

F&GC 5653. (a) The use of any vacuum or suction dredge equipment by any person in any river, stream, or lake of this state is prohibited, except as authorized under a permit issued to that person by the department in compliance with the regulations adopted pursuant to Section 5653.9.

F&GC 5653.8. For purposes of Sections 5653 and 5653.3, "person" does not include a partnership, corporation, or other type of association.

To initiate a valid mining claim, under the General Mining Laws, a U.S. citizen must act in “association” with, and pursuant to Federal law (30 U.S.C. § 21 et seq.). Once the requirements of the General Mining Laws are met, the right granted by the statute is a real property interest, i. e., “property in the fullest sense of that term.” (Wilbur v. United States ex rel. Krushnic, 280 U.S. 306, 316 (1930).)
