Re: Extension of Abatement Time for Rimrock Mine,
Permit No. C-89-074, NOV C-95-015.
I find that the request to extend the abatement date, beyond the 90 day time period, for
NOV C-95-015 for the Rimrock Mine is reasonable for the following reasons:
The abatement required by the Division is for the permit to be transferred to a valid
permittee.
The permittee applied for a transfer of the permit on May 31, 1995, nine days following the
issuance of the NOV.
The permittee has provided all information requested by the Division, for review of the
transfer. The inhibiting factor for the Division to approve the transfer is an AVS block on
the operator. The operator has appealed the reasons for the AVS block with the State
Regulatory Agency that entered it into the AVS.
This appeal is not planned to be heard by the State Regulatory Agency until October, 1995.
The Division is awaiting outcome of this appeal to determine the decision regarding the
transfer of the permit. Therefore, Rule 5.03.2(2)(c)(i) applies in this case.
