An email exchange regarding public comment submission for the Mission Ridge Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Wed, Oct 22, 2025 10:04 AM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hi Mike,<\/p>\n\n\n\n I wanted to check whether you\u2019re overseeing the public comments for Mission\u2019s DEIS. Yesterday, I tried submitting my comments through the County\u2019s website but ran into what appeared to be a server or website issue. I eventually sent them by email (missionridgeeis@outlook.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019m hopeful my submission will be included in the record, but I\u2019m concerned the issue may have caused others to miss the deadline. Could you consider extending the comment period and, if granted, make sure the extension is communicated publicly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks for your time and attention, Attachment: e50354d7-ca0a-4bec-9404-a8e1ffad8d11.jpg<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Wed, Oct 22, 2025 10:10 AM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hi David,<\/p> The comment deadline was 5 PM. Are you saying that you submitted your comment by 5 PM? If so, can you send me that email?<\/p> Thanks, Mike Kaputa, Director, Chelan County Natural Resources Department<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Wed, Oct 22, 2025 10:30 AM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n My comments were submitted shortly after 5:00 p.m. As shown in the lower right corner of the attached screenshot, that was the time of submission. On your website, I relied on the following statement to determine the deadline:<\/p> \u201cChelan County is accepting comments until Oct. 21 on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for a proposed expansion at Mission Ridge Ski and Board Resort.\u201d<\/p> I did not see any reference to a 5:00 p.m. cutoff time on the County\u2019s website or in any other official source, despite reviewing several. Could you please clarify where that specific deadline was communicated? If the cutoff was indeed 5:00 p.m., does that mean my comments will not be included in the record?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Wed, Oct 22, 2025 1:44 PM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hi David,<\/p> Attached is the notice which includes the comment details. That said, I see your point about what our website says under the \u201cNews\u201d section. Let me discuss internally and get back to you.<\/p> Daniel, please flag for discussion.<\/p> Thanks, Attachment: Scanned notice document<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mission Ridge DEIS \u2013 Comment Submission Issue and Request An email exchange regarding public comment submission for the Mission Ridge Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). 1.
