SANBORN CREEK MINE <br />NOV CV-2001-008 <br />Attachment to Abatement Extension Approval <br />As permitted in Rule 5.03.2(2)(e), the Division is granting Oxbow Mining Inc.'s request to <br />extend the abatement due date for abatement step no. 2 for NOV CV-2001-008 past the 90 day <br />limitation. The Division's justification for granting this extension is based on the Division's <br />recent field inspections of the area and the operator's extension request letter dated July 10, <br />2001. The Division agrees with Oxbow Mining Inc. that wet field conditions have been, and <br />continue to be, a deterrent to the performance of abatement work. The wet climatic conditions <br />are preventing the mud pits from drying ou[. Climatic conditions are an acceptable circumstance, <br />as outlined in Rule 5.03.2(2)(c)(iv), for an extension beyond 90 days. <br />c:~ms97lsanbom~nov008ex t2a <br />
