Proponents of Piñon Ridge Uranium Mill are asking county for four-year extension of expired special use permit: Seven years after winning a special use permit, backers of the Piñon Ridge Uranium Mill are asking for an extension in which to begin.
Mill owners' hopes to engage in ablation technology, meanwhile, could be affected by the state's Dec. 1 determination that proposed ablation technology at their San Miguel County mine would have to be regulated through a milling license.
The controversial Piñon Ridge mill, approved for the West End of Montrose County, is yet to start operations, in part because of litigation over and the resulting abeyance of its state radioactive materials permit.
Montrose County's role was to approve a special use permit allowing the mill to be sited in an area zoned for agriculture. The permit was granted in 2009, with a host of conditions. A critical one has not been met: The mill was to have been up and running by the end of September of this year.
"They have not done that," Montrose County Land Use Director Steve White said. "They have requested an amendment to the condition to allow additional time. They've asked for four additional years to be able to build." (Montrose Daily Press Dec. 6, 2016)
