The ".pdf" file contained 74 pages of <br />documents which propose to incorporate a mill facility at the May Day Mine through the Technical <br />Revision process. The proposed revision in the ".pdf' file was not signed by the Permittee. On that same <br />day, September 21s, the Division received copy of page three of the revision by facsimile transmission. <br />The faxed copy of page three appears to bear the signature of the`Permittee. <br />The Division does not consider the email and facsimile transmissions to constitute an official submittal of <br />the proposed revision. The Division routinely receives electronic transmission as a preview of the official <br />submittal. However, the official submittal is delivered to the Office on paper and. signed by the Permittee. <br />If the Permittee desires to revise the permit please do so by submitting an official request, on paper and <br />signed by the Permittee. <br />As a courtesy to the Permittee, the Division has completed a preliminary and abbreviated review of the <br />un-official submittal and offers the following observations. <br />The proposal appears conceptual in nature and is lacking detailed plans and demonstrations required <br />under the Act and Rules. Please review the requirements of Rules 6.1.2, 6.2.1, 6.3.1, 6.3.2, 6.3.3, 6.3.4, <br />6.3.5, 6.3.6 and 6.5, and revise the proposal accordingly. When proposing new structures, the proposal <br />should include a map which shows the locations of such structures, in accordance with Rules 6.2.1(2), <br />6.3.3(1)(e), (m), 6.3.3(2)(d), and 6.3.5. Additionally, when proposing new structures, such structures must <br />be described in accordance with the requirements of Rule 6.3.3. The proposal must address how such <br />structures, and their associated affected lands, will be reclaimed in accordance with Rules 6.3.4 and 6.3.5. <br />Pursuant to Rule 6.3.4(2), the proposal must address the cost of reclamation. Pursuant to Rules 6.3.2, <br />6.3.3 and 6.3.4, the proposal must demonstrate compliance with the performance standards of Rule 3.1. <br />Office of Office of
