Long d/ ~~ Division Director RE: Technical Re/vision to AM-01, Thomas Pit'Permit No. M-1976-020. Dear Mr. Potter:v On March 7, 2002, DMG received a Technical Revision to the Amendment application (AM-01) for the Thomas Pit. The revision included revised pages 14, 15, 16, 17 and maps C-2 and C-6. Submitted documents verify that copy of the revised pages and maps were also submitted to the La Plata County Clerk and Recorders Office on the same day the revision was submitted to DMG. Therefore, the Technical Revision to AM-01 has been filed in accordance with Rule 1.8.1. The March 7, 2002 revision to AM-01 appears to have no substantial changes to AM-01, appears to have only a minor effect upon the proposed reclamation plan and does not alter any of the terms contained in the notice that was published in the newspaper or mailed to the owners of the affected and adjacent lands. Therefore, pursuant to Rule 1.1(49) and 1.6.6, the original public notice remains current and the applicant shall not be required to re-publish or re-notice for the March 7, 2002 revision to AM-01. Pursuant to Rule 1.8.1(6) and 1.8.4(2-, DMG finds that the original decision date for AM- 01 need not be extended as a result of the March 7, 2002 revision. Decision date for AM-01 remains at May 16, 2002. DMG is reviewing AM-01 and its recent revision. Adequacy issues, resulting from DMG review, wilt follow under separate mailing.
