You aze well-acquainted with the facts underlying <br />the NOV. Mountain Coal continues to be particularly concerned with the allegation in the NOV <br />that Mountain Coal failed to salvage topsoil at the development waste pile site. <br />Mountain Coal requests that the Division reconsider the basis for the topsoil allegation in the <br />NOV, and vacate that portion of the NOV for reasons stated in Mountain Coal's previous letters <br />to the Division. Should the Division agree, Mountain Coal also requests that the Division <br />reassess the penalty associated with this NOV. <br />Sincerely, <br />f ~~e.~v~-~ . ulo~;#- <br />Kathleen G.
