Therefore, Tri-State on behalf of <br />the New Horizon is submitting the enclosed revised materials for SL -15. <br />Per a phone conversation between yourself and Mr. Tony Tennyson on Match 1, 2017, it was noted <br />that a small area being applied for Phase II release under SL- I S had not been approved for Phase I release to <br />date. This issue has been corrected and is portrayed on the enclosed map for the SL -15 application. <br />Tri-State would like to notify the Division that with this correction of the Phase II areas being applied <br />for under SL -15, that this will reduce the overall acres being applied for by 0.9 acres. The application was <br />applying for 112.3 acres of Phase R release, and with this revision, New Horizon will be applying for 111.4 <br />acres of Phase I1 release under SL -15. <br />Enclosed please find a revised Map 1 for the SL -15 application which includes the revised area as <br />noted above.
