This request <br />increases the injection pressure of the solution mining wells from 700 PSI to 800 <br />PSI. Prior to increasing the pressure on a well a successful EPA approved UIC <br />permit pressure test will be completed on each well. This test will insure the <br />formation fracture pressure is not exceeded. <br />This revision does not change impacts analyzed in the EI5 for the Yankee Gulch <br />Sodium Minerals Project and is therefore approved. <br />If there any questions, please contact Paul Daggett at (970) 878-3819. <br />Sincerely, <br />7~~~~ <br />Kent Walter <br />Field Manager <br />cc: Mr. Dan Jackson <br />United States Environmental Protection Agency <br />999 18th Street - Suite 500 <br />Mail Code SWM-DW <br />Denver.
