<p class="MsoNormal">PC has a development agreement in place for a large parcel of vacant, undeveloped land. Commercial and subdivisions nearby. A number of years ago the mineral rights were sold to a third party known in the area to aggressively pursue mineral
 rights. PC wants to know that, when a binding site plan in place, can PC move dirt between lots and potentially remove dirt without incurring a legal obligations to the mineral rights holder? Any experience/thoughts on issues similar to this would be greatly
 appreciated. <o:p></o:p></p>
