Please <br />be aware that the Division will not approve the new application until a bond release has been <br />submitted and approved by the Division. At this time it does not appear that the existing <br />operators for the above mentioned sites have filed a bond release application. <br />Please be advised that Fetcher/Vale Gravel Pit application may be deemed inadequate, and the <br />application may be denied on March 26, 2003 unless the above mentioned adequacy review items are <br />addressed to the satisfaction of the Division. If you feel more time is needed to complete your reply, <br />the Division can grant an extension to the decision date. This will be done upon receipt of a written <br />waiver of your right to a decision by March 26, 2003 and request for additional time. This must be <br />received no later than the deadline date. <br />If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. <br />S rely, <br />Erica Crosby <br />Environmental Protectio S alist <br />Enclosure <br />cc: Carl Mount; DMG <br />Steve Kaspar; Elam Construction, Inc. <br />Greg Lewicki <br />
