A summary of the history of the NOV follows: • The NOV was issued on May 23, 1994 for failure to make copies of all records available for public inspection. Specifically, the DMG permit was not on file at the County Courthouse. • The operator has stated in the enclosed letter that the DMG permit had been on file in the courthouse, but that it had disappeared in a similar fashion to the way other documents had disappeared in the past. A search through the files revealed that the signed permit document had actually never been returned to the Division by the operator. The permit document was signed by Mike Long in January, 1993; however, the operator failed to sign and return the document to the Division. The cover letter sent to the operator with the permit document did not specify that the document should be signed and returned. However, the document itself states that it should be signed and returned. The operator was informed, verbally, in person on June 13, 1994 that the permit document had been sent out in January, 1993 and still needs to be signed and returned to the Division. To date, nothing has been received. I would appreciate your expeditious review of this NOV and assessment of a civil penalty by June 22, 1994. If you have any questions, please let me know. The operator, Peter Matthies, can be reached at (303) 984-3655.
