determination that it lacked jurisdiction to order a public hearing on the NOI
was arbitrary because USE&#8217;s proposed activities at the Lucky Jack property are
&#8220;development&#8221; work, not &#8220;prospecting,&#8221; as those terms are defined under the
Mined Land Reclamation Act, and therefore Board&#8217;s authorization of the NOI
should be the subject of an open hearing.</font></div>
