M -1982 -131 <br />Technical Revision No. 1 Adequacy Review, Request for Extension <br />Dear Mr. Hays: <br />Thank you for your review of the Technical Revision No. 1 submitted by Applegate Group, Inc. on <br />behalf of the Bucklen Equipment Company. <br />In your letter dated August 28 2012, which was received on September 4, 2012 you indicated that <br />the deadline for responses was September 6, 2012. Based on the information requested in the letter, <br />we do not believe that this will be an adequate amount of time to provide a thorough response to the <br />review comments and to obtain the signatures required. <br />In addition, the recent DRMS Board Order regarding placement of import fill in the eastern portion <br />of Amendment Area A requires the pit owners to remove putrescible material from the pit. Based on <br />this decision, the Bucklen Equipment Company must consider the future use of that portion of <br />Amendment Area A. That decision may affect our responses to this Adequacy Review. <br />We hereby request a ninety (90) day extension to the response period provided and waive the right of <br />the Bucklen Equipment Company to a decision regarding the Technical Revision No. 1 by September <br />6, 2012. <br />Pleased contact me at your convenience should you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />Applegate Group, Inc. <br />Carrie Herbolsheimer, PE <br />Water Resource Engineer <br />CH/ta <br />cc: Randy Bucklen <br />AG File No. 07 -148 <br />N: \07148 Buclden Annual Report \Disciplines (Technical)\Mine Planning \Technical Revision \TR adequacy review extension requestdocx <br />1490 W. 121" Avenue, Suite 100 <br />Denver, CO 80234 <br />303 -452 -6611 <br />www.applegategroup.com <br />118 W. 6 Street, Suite 100 <br />Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 <br />
