To get the reclamation back on <br />track, Seneca has rented two new dozers that will be dedicated to backfilling and grading. In the <br />interim, Seneca is submitting this TR to bring the mining operation into full compliance with the <br />permit and applicable regulatory provisions. <br />This submittal package includes the required application form, proposed public notice, revised or <br />new permit information, and insertion instructions for updating the PAP.
