Extract from RNS issued on the 24th of June :-6 Jul 2020 16:21
Only three comments were received. All three comments were federal and state agency comments of a minor nature that will be addressed by minor edits to the EA. Responses to the comments will also be provided as an appendix to the Final EA. There were no public comments or comments from Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs). Once these comments on the EA are addressed and an updated EA submitted, the Company then awaits the issuance of the Decision Record and Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) from the BLM, being the final approvals in the BLM permitting process.
It would be good to know when the company intend to submit the updated EA and if they can give any idea as to how long approval would normally take subject to no further issues being raised. We are coming on for one week since this RNS was posted. I do not think it unreasonable for the company keeping us up to speed on this and at least trying to manage expectations. Gla
