Here’s the text of the email received from the EPA from Stephen M. Jann, Chief, Underground Injection Control Branch:

As of September 20, 2016, Savoy Energy has withdrawn its permit application for the proposed Moore #3-14 well, Underground Injection Control draft permit #MI-017-2D-0014. Therefore, the draft permit is no longer under consideration by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). EPA will take no further action regarding this draft permit and will not hold a public hearing or respond further to comments collected during the comment period. Should the company propose the well again, it must submit a new application to EPA, which would undergo review and public notice.
