Listed below are the third adequacy review comments for the Allen Pit 112 (c) Permit Application, File No. M-2005-
080. The decision date for this permit was extended to June 1, 2006 due to objections received. Due to delays in the
review process, and additional issues brought to the attention of the Division, the Division will be unable to complete
the necessary steps prior to the May iQ, 2006 Board Hearing and therefore a decision regarding the permit cannot be
made prior to the June 14 and 15 hearing dates. Per our earlier conversation, the Division needs a written request from
the Applicant for an extension to the decision date. Additionally, your response to the following adequacy review
concern should be submitted to the Division as soon as possible.
Rule 6.4.12 Exhibit N -Source of Leeal Rieht to Enter
1. This Rule requires the Operator/Applicant to provide the source of the Operator/Applicant's legal right to enter and
initiate a mining operation on the affected land. Per conversations of last week, please comment on the enclosed
materials related to the mineral rights for the property.
Because objections were filed for this Permit, this matter must be set for a hearing before the Boazd. The tentative date
for the hearing is May 1 Q 2006, but will be changed to the June 14 and 15 hearing date once a request for an extension
to the decision date is received. The Division will need to make a recommendation by May 20, 2006. Please be
advised that the Allen Drilling and Excavating Co., Inc. 112(c) Permit Application may be deemed inadequate, and the
application may be denied on May 1Q, 2006 unless a request for an extension to the decision date is received by the
Division the above mentioned adequacy review items are addressed to the satisfaction of the Division before May 20,
2006. Please be aware that depending on the answers that are received regarding the above adequacy issues, [he
Division may have further adequacy questions.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at [phone].
Sincerely, /
