4 <br /> Engineers. These and other governmental agencies are contacted on a case-by-case <br /> basis for comments on the application as may be appropriate. <br /> THE 112 RECLAMATION PERMIT PROCESS: <br /> Upon receipt of an application, the Office makes an administrative determination <br /> that the application contains sufficient information for the application to be <br /> considered administratively filed. Once an application is considered filed, the <br /> Office has 90 days to complete its adequacy review of the application and to make <br /> its decision to approve or deny the application. Any application denied by the <br /> Office is automatically set for a Board hearing. During the adequacy review <br /> process, the Office examines each Exhibit in the application to verify that all the <br /> requirements for an Exhibit, pursuant to the'Act and Rules, have been adequately <br /> addressed. Where inadequacies in an Exhibit exist, the Office sends an adequacy <br /> letter to the Applicant requesting that the inadequacies identified by the Office be <br /> addressed. <br /> Where there are no objections to an application, only the Applicant may extend the <br /> application review process beyond the 90th day decision date. If an application is <br /> not adequate, and the decision date is not extended by the Applicant, the Office <br /> may deny the application. Extensions beyond the 90th day decision date may not <br /> extended past 365 days from the date the application was considered filed. If an <br /> application reaches the 365th day, and Office adequacy issues remain, the <br /> application may be scheduled for a Board hearing to approve or deny the <br /> application. <br /> If the Office receives an objection to an application, the application is <br /> automatically set for a Board hearing. Once the Office makes a finding that an <br /> application is filed, the Board must make its decision to approve or deny the <br /> application by the 120th day, unless the Applicant extends the decision date. <br /> Again, the extension may not exceed 365 days beyond the filing date. <br /> Provisions of the Act require that an application be automatically approved if <br /> the office does not make a decision on the application by the 90th day, or by <br /> the Board, where a timely objection is received, by the 120th day, unless those <br /> dates are extended or waived by the Applicant. <br /> 5 <br />
