An administrative <br />review of the submission noted the application was complete for review and was considered filed as of July 26, <br />2011. The decision date was set for October 24, 2011. <br />On October 11, 2011 the Division issued its Preliminary Adequacy Review (PAR). The PAR noted several issues that <br />will require additional technical information from Rimrock. On October 21, 2011 Rimrock requested an extension <br />of the decision date to December 15, 2011 in order to develop a response to the PAR. The Division is approving <br />that request. Please note that Division staff must have adequate time to review any submitted responses. Due to <br />the technical nature of the response it is recommended that Rimrock submit a PAR response no later than <br />December 1, 2011. <br />If you need additional information please contact me at the Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety, Grand <br />Junction Field Office, 101 S. 3rd St., Suite 301, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501, or by telephone no. 970.241.1117. <br />G.
