BOWMAN: Sorry. Okay, it doesn’t matter. I’m just looking at the one that says August 2006. WATANABE: Yeah, I believe her application started in 2007 so 2006 would be wrong; and I think Jeff indicated that when he was showing some of the pictures. BOWMAN: Okay, I thought there was one in June of 2006 and another one in August 2007. I need to be clear on that. DARROW: Okay, if I could clarify this. They’re both done in 2006. That’s where I got those figures. It was on, if, they’re exhibits within -. BOWMAN: Attachment 9? DARROW: Right. And they’ll say the dates on there, 2006. The August 2006 I’ve been informed by the applicant was submitted along with the application. The applicant had subsequently had done another one in August of 2007. That’s where I was having the thinking that that might be incorrect. BOWMAN: Okay. So my question is this was done when DLNR was not certifying these, right? I think that you said that the State in November 2006, the DLNR said they would be doing shoreline certifications. But because they did this in August of 2006 why wasn’t it accepted? YUEN: We, the rule says that when the SMAA comes into the Department there are several options; and one of them is at the end of the 35-day period to return the application as incomplete because it does not have information that you need. And that was the option that we decided to take because we found out the State was certifying shorelines, so we would be able to find out where this property was in relation to a properly certified shoreline. BOWMAN: Okay so this, I’m sorry. So this application even though the survey was done in August the application wasn’t sent in till like November, December after? YUEN: The exact date is somewhere in the records. I believe it was in September. th The 35 days would have run out some time before November 15. The applicant did extend the th time to November 15 to act on the application at our request. BOWMAN: So basically it wasn’t approved because it wasn’t certified by DLNR? YUEN: They didn’t have a certified survey, that’s it, that’s right. BOWMAN: But they had a shoreline survey and other people prior to this that had that -- I’m just trying to be clear so I understand – probably had their applications approved because DLNR wasn’t certifying? YUEN: We had done applications before using a private surveyor’s determination of the shoreline at a high tide event, which was not a properly certified shoreline by the State. 8
