the permit by the Board.  The Board may, as necessary and deemed

reason over which the applicant has no control.

commencement of works or request to extend time within thirty (30)
days after the end of the two-year period, the permit shall be
deemed expired after written notice to the applicant.

extending the time within which the waters authorized for use must
be placed to actual beneficial use as provided in the permit and
