The Planning Commission's notices on the Utah Public Notice Website from 5 May to 6 October 2026 (ten on the commission's notice page) listed rezones, subdivisions and routine hearings, and, until a Valar presentation was added to the October 6 agenda on October 2, no item for Valar, a reactor, Section 16 or the Wellington trust-land parcel. The June and August 2026 minutes (scanned) do not mention Valar. The agenda for 6 October 2026 (posted 23 September) has one land-use item: possible approval of a conditional use permit for 'a phased Technology Park and associated infrastructure located East of Wellington' on two parcels for Altigen JS, LLC and Duct Tape, LLC (no record read links that project to Valar). The October notice says it was sent to a local newspaper, radio stations KOAL and KUSA, ETV Channel 10 and the state website. As of late September 2026 no Valar conditional use application, site plan or rezone appears in these records.

In plain termsBefore anything can be built on the Wellington parcel, Carbon County must approve a conditional use permit (csite-015). No Valar item was found in the planning board's posted notices from May to early October 2026, as read on 29 September; on 2 October a Valar presentation was added to the 6 October agenda (loc-037). The state memo says Valar's site plans would go to the county planning commission for review.
verified 2026-10-02: Holds. Re-read in late September 2026: body 1652 notice list; October 6 notice and the text of its Altigen map; June 2 and August 4 minutes. Date changed from the future hearing date (6 Oct) to the as-of date of the finding; the claim that every notice names ETV's publication date was not re-checked and was removed. Second check, late September 2026: the notice list for body 1652 shows ten notices, 5 May to 6 Oct 2026; only the Altigen item matched a search for land-use terms.
