§ 65403. Conditions of Approval.
The landowner may petition the Department for cancellation
of any contract as to all or any part of the subject land. The
Department may approve the cancellation of a contract only if it
finds:
(a) that the cancellation is not inconsistent with the
purposes of this Chapter; and
(b) that cancellation is in the public interest.
The existence of an opportunity for another use of the land
involved shall not be sufficient reason for the cancellation of a
contract. A potential alternative use of the land may be considered
only if there is no proximate, noncontracted land suitable for the
use to which it is proposed the contracted land be put.
The uneconomic character of an existing agricultural use shall
likewise not be sufficient reason for cancellation of the contract.
The uneconomic character of the existing use may be considered
only if there is no other reasonable or comparable agricultural use
to which the land may be put.
