1Department reviews shall be conducted as follows:
8(1) Within 30 days after receipt of an operator’s notice of intent to mine, separately submitted conceptual reclamation plan, conceptual reclamation plan modification, or request for other approval, the department shall review the document and shall request the submittal of all additional information the department is permitted by law to require.
59(2) The operator shall provide the requested additional information within 45 days of receipt of the request or request an extension to the 45-day period. The extension request shall include the date by which the additional information can be provided and the reason for the extension.

258(6) The department shall notify the operator as to the sufficiency of the notice of intent to mine within 90 days after receipt of the original notice of intent to mine, the last item of timely requested additional information, or the operator’s written request to begin processing the notice of intent to mine. If the department notifies the operator that the notice of intent to mine is insufficient, the notification of insufficiency shall clearly state why the notice of intent to mine is insufficient.
