Any permittee which determines that an area greater than that <br />specified in the permit must be obstructed or excavated must before working in that greater area <br />(i) make application for a permit extension and pay any additional fees required thereby, and (ii) <br />be granted a new permit or permit extension. <br /> <br />Subd. 2.
