(Permit No: M-88-112) <br />Dear Mr. Douchane; <br />The Division continues to progress on its review of each of the three above <br />referenced technical revisions. We appreciate the aggressive manner in which <br />Battle Mountain Resources, Inc. (BIMRI) has pursued resolution of each of its <br />technical revision applications. However, the complex nature, the burden of <br />otner duties, and the sequential nature of several of these revisions, make it <br />impossible for the Division to complete their review by the original statutory <br />deadlines. for this reason, I ask that 6MRI request the following review <br />deadline extensions. failing a request by BMRI, the Division's only <br />al :ernative would be denial of the revision applications. <br />T.R-008 Installation of additional ground tvat2r monitoring and <br />err luation of the data collected. Necessary well permits <br />were verbally appr;,ved Juiy 7, 1992 by the Division of IAater <br />Resources. In accordance with theooard's additicnai <br />corrective action order of June 25, 1992, this sits the <br />deadline for 6,4RI's submittal of an evaluative report as <br />August 6, 1992. The parties will than have ten days to <br />comment. in light of this, I ask that you request an <br />extension of the 7R-COS review deadline from July 16 to <br />Monday, }.u gust 22, 1992 (prior to the August Board meeting). <br />TR-009 Following "he satisfactcri completion of TR-CCB, BMRI can <br />then finalize its ground water containment plan, proposed as <br />technical revision TR-009. Realistically, I project that the <br />submittal, part! comment, response and approval could not be <br />completed prior to late September. therefore, I ask that you <br />request an extension of the TR-009 revie~,a deadline from <br />July 16, !992 io Monday, September 21, 1992 (prior t•D the <br />September Board meeting). <br />TR-010 The Division is involved in the re iie'•v of BMRI's responsa *_o <br />OUr technical ddegUdC`J COmmenti. I hope t0 complete rovie~.a <br />
