During this phone call Phil requested a one month, or one month plus one week extension on pumping cease order included with NOV 97-022. He states that MCC is in the process of lining ponds FW-1 and MB-I to mitigate the facilities area slide. He states that MCC needs to pump to the sumps to allow the lining to occur.
