⚠ Gaps in the record
- The permit number in the OCR reads '2PE00000*MD' — the asterisk may be an OCR artifact for a digit or character; verified against image which appears consistent.
- Two separate letters are embedded on this page; both are captured under a single record.
- The February 24, 2015 letter references 'URS Project No. 14578549' only in the February 27 letter; the CSO letter is a separate notification.
- Volume figure '12.23MG' is from OCR; image appears to confirm this reading.
