LonK <br />Division Dveclor <br />FROM: Harry Posey ~~~'~~~ <br />RE: Review: Letter dated May 2, 1995 in Re: Submission of Information on 1995 <br />Construction of Cresson Valley Leach Facility and Response to OMLR <br />Letter of April 13, 1995; CC&V, Cresson Mine, Permit No. M-80-244 <br />This review evaluates three documents: <br />1.
