Re:	Water Licence Application

Dear Ms. Gregory,.

The Nunavut Water Board acknowledges receipt of your March 2, 1998 letter with the following attached documents:

i.	Water licence application for the Big Nose and Lytton JV Projects;

ii.	the required fee to cover the two applications.

These two projects are subject to screening by the Nunavut Impact Review Boardand have been sent for their determination as whether they require further review or if they can be processed by the Nunavut Water Board. You will be contacted should additional information or clarification be required.

I am also returning the cheque as it should be made to the order of the Receiver General for Canada. Please send the cheque to my attention for processing.

Sincerely,

David Porter

Licence Administrator
