IN THE MATTER OF APPEAL OF:APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO LIMITED MINING OPERATION, PEAK GRAVEL, ET0961, T
Docket 24-4801 The Administrator of the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, Land Quality Division, executed an "Approval of Amendment to Limited Mining Operation, Peak Gravel, ET0961, TFN 7 6/211," (hereinafter, "Permit Approval") dated August 5, 2024.
