  5.   </p><p>The developers of a proposed Union County egg farm have asked for a public hearing to dispute the Ohio Department of Agriculture's intent to deny their permit requests.</p><p>
  6.   </p><p>
  7.   ThisWeek  obtained a copy of a certified letter sent by Kevin Braig, an attorney representing Hi-Q Egg Products LLC, to the ODA, requesting a formal adjudication hearing. The letter is dated Sept. 20.</p><p>
  8.   </p><p>Last month, ODA director Robert J. Boggs sent a certified letter to the company (dated Aug. 25), stating the agency's intent to deny two permit requests filed by Hi-Q to construct a farm in northwestern Union County, citing the company's failure to furnish all of the necessary paperwork. Hi-Q had 30 days to present a response for a public hearing, according to the ODA's letter, or the requests would be denied without further discussion.</p><p>
  9.   </p><p>"Hi-Q appreciates the opportunity that the department is providing for Hi-Q to demonstrate that Hi-Q has fully complied with the department's permitting process and provided complete information to local government officials with respect to expected to use of roads and infrastructure that may result from the installation of the Hi-Q facility," Braig wrote in an e-mail to   ThisWeek .</p><p>
  10.   </p><p>Hi-Q proposes to construct 15 layer houses with 400,000 layers each, for a total capacity of 6-million chickens, according to the permit requests.</p><p>
  11.   </p><p>The ODA's Aug. 25 letter expressing its intent to deny the permit requests cites a lack of all necessary documents from the company and local municipalities. Those documents revolve around a needed transportation agreement among the farm developer, county commissioners and York Township trustees, detailing who is responsible for infrastructure improvements, before the farm would be built.</p><p>
