The Division conducted a <br />mid-term review of Permit G80-003 in August 1999 and requested that the permit be updated to <br />reflect the current conditions. HGCC is submitting the following technical revision in response to <br />the deficiency comments listed in the Midterm Review letter dated August 11, 1999. These <br />deficiency comments are solely a result of the recent Phase II/III partial bond release. It should <br />be noted that HGCC previously estimated that 6.8 acres would be contained widlin the "new" <br />permit boundary, however HGCC recently had the four (4) remaining parcels surveyed and it was <br />determined chat there are 8.9 acres contained within the "new' permit boundary. <br />Responses to each of the comments and requests are provided below and are numbered <br />accordingly. Enclosed you will find tlaree (3) copies of this Technical Revision (I'R-68) which is <br />intended to be included in the bevrnnin~ of the original permit document as an Introductory <br />Supplement/LJpdate and will serve as the updated 1999 Permit Application Package.
