We have received from The Pittsburg & Midway Coal Mining Company (P&M), a request for
an extension of the abatement deadlines for the above mentioned notices of violations. A
copy of that request has been provided for your review. Notice of Violation C-93-025 was
written for failure to provide designs for existing drainage control structures at the Edna Mine,
and was issued on April 5, 1993. Notice of Violation C-93-026, also issued on April 5, cited
a failure to retain sediment within disturbed area boundaries. The deadline for abatement of
the violations was set for July 4, 1993, the maximum time permitted by Rule 5.03.2(2)(b). The
abatement requirements consisted of two steps: 1) submit technical revisions to include the
required designs and revised drainage plans, and 2) implement the plan within two weeks of
Division approval. Due dates for these actions were May 20, 1993, and July 4, 1993. P&M
submitted two technical revisions on May 17, 1993 and May 20, 1993, respectively. The
Division has not yet completed an adequacy review of the submittals.
P&M would like an extension of 60 days on the abatement deadlines, to September 2, 1993.
I believe this is a reasonable request which complies with Rule 5.03.2(2)(c)(i), since the
operator has applied for technical revisions in a timely fashion. Therefore, I am requesting
that you authorize such an extension.
