Information regarding the proposed permit transfer may be reviewed in the office of the Land Quality Division of the Department of Environmental Quality in Cheyenne and Lander, Wyoming, the office of Westmoreland Kemmerer, LLC’s Kemmerer Mine, or the Lincoln County Clerk’s Office in Kemmerer, Wyoming.

The nature of any objection must relate to the ability of the new permit holder (transferee) to meet the obligations of the permit. The Director may hold an informal conference if requested, hear the complaint and take action on the application in accordance with the Department’s Rules of Practice and Procedure. The complainants shall have a right of appeal to the Environmental Quality Council where the complaint will be heard a second time. A conference shall be held if the Director determines that the nature of the complaint or the position of the complainants indicates that an attempt to informally resolve the disputes is preferable to a contested case proceeding. An informal conference or a public hearing shall be held within twenty (20) days after the final date for filing objections unless a different period is stipulated to by the parties. The Council or Director shall publish notice of the time, date and location of the hearing or conference in a newspaper of general circulation in the locality of the proposed operation once a week for two (2) consecutive weeks immediately prior to the hearing or conference.

The Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission will be mailed a copy of the application mine plan map as required in W.S. 35-11-406(j).]
