Re: Whirlwind Mine, File No, M-2007-044, Forward of Objection Comments and Request for Response,
Dear Mr. Filas:
On October 11, 2007 the Division received comments from the Information Network For Responsible Mining
(INFORM). Per Rule 1.7(2)(a) these comments are considered timely in the application process. Staff faxed the
comments to Energy Fuels immediately upon receipt for their review and records.
The Division as part of the adequacy review is requesting that Energy Fuels formally respond to the INFORM letter.
Energy Fuels should send the response directly to INFORM and copy the Division. As noted in the Division letter to
INFORM there are some issues brought up which are normally reviewed and some that are non jurisdictional.
Currently the Division's hydrologist, geo-chemist and engineer are reviewing the application. Staff has requested that
their comments be submitted by November 1 or as close thereafter as possible. Once all the staff comments have been
submitted an adequacy letter will be forthcoming as soon as possible.
Sincc~erely,
G. Russell Means
