WELBORN. DUFFORD. COOK t~ BROWN • Mr. Donald A. Crane April 2, 1980 Page Two As you know, WSC needs OSM's approval in order to drill this well and an application therefore has been submitted. Since this application has not been approved, of course, the well cannot be drilled "immediately". However, WSC is committed to drilling this well as soon as such approval is obtained avid the necessary arrangements can be made with a drilling company. Further explanation of the circumstances surrounding WSC's efforts to obtain this drilling permit are set forth in Al Amundson's letter to you of April 1, 1980, which was hand delivered to Tom Pike on April 2. WSC hereby accepts all Standard Stipulations as written. WSC hereby accepts Special Stipulation No. 1 as written. • With regard to Special Stipulation Nos. 2(a) and (b), WSC has explained to your staff that the two-week deadlines cannot possibly be met. However, t4SC does hereby agree to have the demonstrations and designs discussed therein certified by qualified registered professional engineer. We understand that OSM is agreeable to a reasonable extension of the two- week deadline. A qualified registered professional engineer has been contacted about these certifications and has indicated that he will tell WSC next week when he can complete the required work. We do not expect this period to be more than an additional three weeks and will be able to inform Tom Pike next week of a firm date by which it will be completed a~~d suLu~ltted. With regard to Special Stipulation No. 3, additional information with regard to the subsidence control plan was submitted today attached to Al Amundson's letter of April 1 to you. At that time, he was informed by members of your staff that the presentation of this information should be rearranged and that certain additional information was required. It is anticipated that this work can be completed within the specified time period. If any additional time is needed, a timely request will be made. Finally, WSC under- stands that there is no particular significance to express inclusion of the last sentence in Special Stipulation No. 3 • in contrast to its absence from any of the other stipulations.
