82-4-225 . (Temporary) Application for permit amendment. (1) A permittee may apply to increase the permit boundary, but an increase may not extend the period for which an original permit was issued.

All procedures of this part pertaining to original applications apply to applications for the increase of the permit area, except for incidental boundary revisions and minor revisions.

(2) If the department approves a reduction in the acreage covered by the original or supplemental permit, it shall release the bond for each acre reduced, but the bond may not be reduced below $10,000, except as provided in 82-4-223 . (Terminates on occurrence of contingency--sec. 6, Ch. 524, L. 2023.)
