Dear Ms. Eva Schulz,

I am an employee of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC), water resources division, who will be making an intervention at the public hearing regarding the Defence Contruction Canada's application for a water licence for the clean up of the Fox-5 DEW line site.  To make a proper intervention, I require a bit more information on the exact locations of various aspects of the project.

I was wondering if you could suppy me with a topographic map of Broughton Island that would include the exact location of the existing landfill to be capped, the site of the two proposed non-hazardous landfills, and the proposed Tier II landfill.  Also,  could you please clearly indicate the locations of the Municipality of Qikiqtarjuaq's water supply lake and secondary water supply lake, as well as you're camp's proposed water supply lake.  If I understood correctly, you will no longer be creating a PCB painted material landfill; if this assumption is wrong, please indicate on the map where this landfill will be as well.

At the moment, I only have the figures presented in the water licence application.  This includes a figure entitled: Overall Site Plan (in Appendix A) which although gives locations of various sites, does not include any topography, and Figure 2: Geological Overview Map (in Appendix B) which appears to be a satellite or aerial photo of the area but a) is in black and white (at least in my copy of the application) and thus hard to defferentiate any of the terrain or topography, and b) does not include the locations of any of the propossed landfills, or, if there, they cannot be discerened because of the black and white nature of the figure.

A digital copy of any such map would probably be the easiest method to proceed.  Since this file is likely too large in size to simply email, perhaps you have a ftp site where I can access and download such a map?  If the file is relatively small is size (1 MB or less), then please feel free to simply email it directly to me.  If the file is too large (over 1 MB) and you have no ftp site for easy download, I will eagerly await for a copy to arrive in the mail (prefarbly digital burned onto a CD, but an actual paper map will sufice).

Thank you.
