This means that formal <br /> notice will be published and mailed to interested parties, and <br /> the parties will have a 10-day comment period to respond to the <br /> TR application. This process provides a mechanism for formally <br /> notifying and soliciting the input of all concerned parties, and <br /> we have no objection to it. <br /> However, we are also concerned that because the berm has <br /> been an integral part of the amendment application (AM-002) which <br /> has been processed over the last few months, some parties may be <br /> confused and believe that they have already commented on the <br /> merits of the berm. For that reason they may not provide <br /> additional input to this TR process. We thus request that the <br /> MLRB direct the DMG staff to consider, as part of its decision on <br /> the TR application, all information relevant to the berm and its <br /> 1 <br /> Jana L.Mendez Ronald K.Stewart Paul Danish <br /> County CommLssloner County Commtssioner County Commissioner <br />
