Appeals of the aquifer exemption associated with the Dewey Burdock Class III Area Permit must be filed in accordance with 42 USC § 300j-7, not 40 CFR § 124.19, because it is a final agency action independent from the permit. See In re Florence Copper, 17 EAD 406, 419 (EAB 2017). Pursuant to 40 CFR § 23.7, the 45-day period discussed in 42 USD § 300j-7(a)(2) begins two weeks after the date of signature of the aquifer exemption. Therefore, appeals of this aquifer exemption have to be filed by January 22, 2021.
Due to office closures related to the COVID-19 outbreak, at this time please do not contact EPA via regular mail.
