Climax subsequently published a <br />notice of the application submittal in local area newspapers on May 27, 2010. The notice was to be <br />published once per week for four (4) consecutive weeks with the final publication date being June <br />17, 2010. <br />After the initial filing with the MLRB and the start of public notice publications, Climax identified a <br />need to modify the amendment application. Subsequently, Climax did not publish the final June 17, <br />2010 notice. Given the above, Climax formally requests that the Division delay full review of the <br />application until such time as Climax can develop and submit relevant changes. Prior to the <br />submittal of the amended application, Climax will provide notice to the appropriate Boards of <br />County Commissioners and Soil Conservation Districts, post appropriate notices at the mine site, <br />and update all public review copies of the application with the relevant changes. <br />If you have questions or comments, please don't hesitate to contact me at (719) 486 -7718. <br />Sincerely, <br />_/� � /).
