intensive investigation, not just Western Fuels stating that there was no Prime Farmland because <br />of a. 1992 document. <br />(47) The Rules and Regulations state that an OMISSION of the Facts and documentation is just <br />as critical of a violation as documenting something that is not accurate. <br />(48) A Technical Revision was then. used TR-57 to do the soil handling, soil substitute, and. <br />everything that was discussed at this meeting that we were not allowed to be at that did MAJOR <br />changes to everything, about 300 pages. Technical Revisions can ONLY address MINOR issues. <br />Mike Boulay instructed that a Permit Revision be made and that is what we were told, but instead <br />they used a Technical Revision to address Prime Farmland and when this Technical Revision <br />carne out, we were at the Hospital. Mr. And Mrs. Morgan were there and Mrs. Morgan was <br />having surgery and when we got back, this 10 day objection period was up in two days and we <br />had not even seen or heard about this revision. We asked Marcia Talvi.tie for an extension to <br />read this, she denied us, however she sent 20 pages faxed so we could read it and we filed an. <br />objection. All of the things that were discussed. at the February meeting were now put in stone <br />that only an act of God could get changed. They would not listen to anything that we said nor <br />accept our experience with irrigation or our crops and tried to change our PRIME FARMLAND <br />into DRYLAND. Where was our protection. The Mine dominated and the Mine told them what <br />they would do .instead of this Regulatory program protecting us. <br />(49) Again, our rights and our environment, and our Prime Farmland that had been historically <br />irrigated, cropped and documented as being Prime. The Division was helping Western Fuels to <br />disqualify our property because the Soils were stolen and no one knew how to fix the damages <br />that had been done. <br />(50) The importance of a Technical. Revision and a Permit Revision is the length of time that it <br />gave the landowner to review the material and formulate an accurate and factual objection. A <br />Technical Revision allows 1.0 days. A Permit Revision allows 30 days. There is no way that any <br />of us, Mr. Morgan, Being Blind, Mrs Morgan. just got out of surgery, and us working full time <br />could evaluate this 300 page document that addressed mostly the Morgan. property. This was <br />not only detrimental to all of us and our lives, but should never have been approved nor <br />permitted by the Division. <br />(51) There were changes made to sections of the permit application AFTER approval of PR.-05 <br />expansion and discrepancies between Sail salvage and. replacement described in RN-4. <br />They were doing a two lift operation on lands classified as pasture lands and then entered Prime <br />Farmlands and went to a one lift operation on Prime Farmlands that had been historically <br />cropped and irrigated. This two lift to a one lift operation was inseparable damages done to us by <br />a MINOR revision. This is against all rules and regulations. <br />(52) They continuously allow the documentation that Crop land must be Prime. This is untrue. <br />Prime Farmland must be crop land, but cropland does not have to be prime soils. <br />(53) Technical Revision such as TR-49 have been used to change historically irrigated and <br />
