(1) an affidavit stating that the permittee spent an average of at least five dollars per acre per year during the permit period on work which increased the permittee's knowledge of the coal deposit within the area, in accordance with the terms of the permit;

(2) a description of prospecting activities showing, to the commissioner's satisfaction, that the permittee substantially complied with the notice of intent to explore or the exploration permit required under 11 AAC 85.110(f) or a statement showing to the commissioner's satisfaction that compliance was delayed or interrupted by force majeure; and

(3) any additional information requested by the commissioner.

(b) Failure to provide the information or to make a showing as required by (a) of this section will result in denial of an application.

(c) An application for extension of a coal prospecting permit must be filed at least 30 days before the expiration of the permit.

(d) Within 21 days after receipt, the commissioner will review the application for completeness and notify the applicant of any deficiency. A decision will be issued within 65 days after receipt of a completed application. The filing of an application for an extension suspends the expiration of the original term of the permit until the application is either approved or denied.
