Application for Water Pollution Control Permit.

 

On August 28, 2013, Standard Gold Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Water Pollution Control Permit (“WPCP”) application with the State of Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (“NDEP”). The Company hired Allstate-Nevada Environmental Management, Inc. to assist in obtaining the WPCP and help fulfill any and all requirements, including the site characterization, Meteoric Profile II analysis and the overall site cleanup.

 

NDEP’s review of the WPCP application may take up to 225 days, which is the maximum period of review by law. While the new application review period is limited to 180 days, NDEP is permitted to extend the process for up to 45 days if a public hearing is required or additional time for scheduling is needed. The WPCP must be approved prior to commencing the planned construction of a 15,000 square foot processing plant in Tonopah, Nevada.
