Date: Mon, 07 Jun 2010 14:40:28 -0700 From: "Daniel Fuchs" To: "Mike Barkley" Cc: "D Barkley" , "Charles (ENRD) Shockey" Subject: Re: Barkley v. SWRCB Mr. Barkley: I have confirmed with the State Water Board that its mailroom stamped your petition received on January 12. The State Water Board has therefore considered the petition timely, and continues to consider it so. I hope this puts your mind at ease. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions. We are looking forward to seeing your notice of dismissal. --dmf >>> Mike Barkley 6/4/2010 9:01 AM >>> Mr. Fuchs, Could you look into this? Thanks. --Mike Barkley - - - - DRAFT - not yet sent: Dear Mr. Sawyer Thank you for your letter of 06/01/2010. Therein you state that I submitted my appeal on 01/14/2010. My copy is date stamped by your mail room 01/12/2010. Is your 01/14/2010 date a typo, or is there some underground regulation afoot that says it is not filed until it reaches the desk of some unknown person within the SWRCB? 01/14/2010 would seem to be a day late depending on what rules you are using for deadlines, and I would hate to be dismissing this only to find out that you were ultimately going to reject my appeal as not being timely. Please clarify. Thank you. --Mike Barkley
