As a part of our review of outstanding fines <br />an/or penalties incurred by the applicant, we are contacting other <br />state regulatory agencies who have issued permits and/or notices of <br />violations to Bowie Resources Limited or their affiliates. <br />Although your state was not included in the applicant's <br />"Identification of Interests and Statement of Compliance" sections <br />of the permit application, it was brought to my attention through <br />discussions with you that one of BRL's affiliates owns and operates <br />several coal mines in Tennessee. <br />If BRL or any of the attached owners, officers, or directors are <br />currently in violation , have had any permits suspended or revoked, <br />bonds forfeited, or currently owe your state money for fines, fees <br />or civil penalties and the applicant has not filed for <br />administrative review, please notify our office immediately. If <br />after fifteen (15) days we do not receive a response from you, we <br />will presume that the applicant, owners, and directors are in <br />compliance with your state's program. Please note that we do not <br />need to receive a response unless unabated violations, suspensions, <br />cease and desist orders, revocations, bond forfeitures or <br />outstanding fines, fees or civil penalties exist. <br />Also, as we discussed, I am enclosing the entire list of other <br />operations submitted by BRL with this application including those <br />outside of Tennessee. Please cross-check this list against what <br />you have received and notify me if 'there are any additional <br />discrepancies. <br />
