The application was deemed complete on May <br />13, 2016. <br /> <br />Technical Revision 138 (TR-138) seeks to make minor changes to the locations of four Mine <br />Ventilation Boreholes (MVBs), and eliminate a fifth. The size of the pads associated with each <br />MVB will not change; they will be from 0.25 to 2.0 acres in size. A segment of new road will be <br />necessary to reach MVB E7-4; this is expected to be about 14’ in width and 400’ in length. All <br />other roads are existing. The applicant is proposing additional surface disturbance outside of the <br />area currently approved for disturbance. <br /> <br />Permit Revision (PR), Permit Renewal (RN), or Technical Revision (TR) application materials are <br />available for review at the Gunnison County Clerk and Recorder, 221 N. Wisconsin, Suite C, <br />Gunnison, CO 81230 and at the Division’s Denver office. Minor Revision (MR) and Surety <br />Release (SL) application materials are available for review at the Division’s Denver office. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, please contact me. <br />
