Good Faith (May not exceed $1,250) <br />Credit -Extraordinary Effort <br />Credit -Rapid Compliance <br />that residences/dwellings within %: mile of permit <br />boundary will be notified at least 30 days before initiation <br />of blasting. LCC provided written notification to some <br />property owners, but not all. Initiating the blasting <br />without providing the opportunity for owners to request a <br />pre-blast survey compromises the results of later surveys. <br />LLC knew of the notification requirement as <br />evidenced by letters in the file. They failed to send <br />notices to all eligible residents and/or owners of <br />dwellings/structures within %, mile of the permit <br />boundary. <br />There is no evidence that the NOV has been abated. <br />No reduction for good faith is proposed. <br />Total <br />,~ , ` l~tit-z,,z....
