Specifically, the location of the new <br />disturbance and the extended panel 17 in relation to the permit azea. Also, the map included with <br />the submittal, while showing excellent detail, does not include a key. It's not cleaz what part of <br />the dashed line (or lines) represents new construction. <br />As you aze well awaze, the Division is unable to approve this revision until MCC receives <br />approval from the US Forest Service indicating that permission has been granted for surface <br />access to the site. <br />If you have any questions, please feel free to call me. <br />Sincerely, <br />,~%~~ <br />6km Burnell <br />Environmental Protection Specialist <br />
