UIC Extension?So far, I have read many talking about the UIC permit "extension" of 45 days into Jan 2018. If I read the NR on Oct 25 about the draft UIC permit, it said a "minimum of 30 days"... it does not say the comment period is only "30 days". So, why assuming it's 30 days? hence the "extension"? Is "only 30 days" a standard thing for UIC permit?

Mr. Stephen Twyerould reports
EXCELSIOR MINING'S GUNNISON COPPER PROJECT RECEIVES DRAFT FEDERAL EPA PERMIT
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued a draft operating permit, the underground injection control (UIC) permit, for Excelsior Mining Corp.'s Gunnison copper project, located in Cochise county, southeastern Arizona. The draft UIC permit will remain open for public comment for a minimum of 30 days; the timing of the issuance of the final UIC permit is subject to this public comment period. The UIC permit is the last of the three key permits required to get into production; earlier this year, the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality issued an amended aquifer protection permit for the Johnson camp mine and an aquifer protection permit for the Gunnison copper project.
