Notice of the proposed decision will be published in the The Daily Sentinel as soon as possible. The first publication will initiate the thirty (30) day public comment period for the Division's decision. Documentation must be submitted to the Division demonstrating that a copy of the approved revision application was sent to the Office of Surface Mining and the Bureau of Land Management. The material should be sent within 15 days of final approval. Please be advised that federal mine plan approval may need to be obtained from the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM). OSM approval, in addition to State permit approval, is required, before operations affecting federal coal may commence. Please refer to the Performance Bond heading on the enclosed prop osed decision form. If the amount of Bond Held equals or exceeds the Revised Liability, you need not submit additional bond. However, if the Revised Liability exceeds the Bond Held, please submit additional bond or rider to your existing bond that equals or exceeds the Revised Liability. This Permit Revision must not be implemented until this proposed decision becomes final and until any required increase in bond is submitted to and approved by the Division.
