However, as discussed in Table 1, DRMS is <br />reviewing TMI's request for a variance for this with PR9. <br />Midterm Review Methodolo2y <br />For this Midterm Review, the Division reviewed the following documents: <br />1. Permit application; <br />2. Revisions made to the permit since the last permit renewal; <br />3. Annual reclamation and hydrology reports; <br />4.
