Division Direunr
I have received a faeed letter from you consisting of the fifth request for an extension for the above-named application. August
1, 1999 was to be the decision date for this application, a date by which all required materials were to have been submitted,
reviewed and found to be satisfactory and adequate for ilte requirements of this permit. I did receive a packet of materials
submitted by you toward completing iltis requirement, but there is no[ sufficient time for their review. Your latest request asks
for an extension of the decision date until September 1, 1999. 1 am approving this request, and the decision date is now set for
9/1/99.
As you are aware, if the requirements aze not met by the decision date, the application ma}' be denied. Therefore, please ensure
[hat all responses to the Division's 11/18/98 adequacy review letter and onsite inspection report of 1/13/99 are submitted with
enough time for them to be reviewed, and if necessar}' request further clarification from you. If the new date cannot be met,
you may consider requesting another extension.
Please be aware that, pursuant to Rule L4.2(3), if at the end of 365 days after We submittal date of the apphcation, there are
still outstanding adequacy issues to be addressed, ilte decision on the application will be made by ilte Mined Land Reclamation
Board during a hearing to be scheduled. That 365-day period ends on 1 I/3/99.
As you requested in your letter, I have called and left a voice mail message approving this extension request.
Since [Iris application is still in its active review stage, please continue to ensure that all nla[erials pertinent to the application,
including your requests for extension and my responses, are being placed far public review at the county clerk and recorder's.
Please also ensure that such additional filings are made in a timely manner. By the time of ilte Division's decisioq you will
have to have provided proof of each and all such additional filings.
Please contact me if you have any questions. I ntay be reached at the Division's Durango field office: 484 Tumer Dr., Bldg.
