Dear Sir/Madam:

I want to express my concern about further mineral exploration in the calving grounds of the Beverly caribou herd near Baker Lake. Evidence about the low birth rates in the herd make it extremely important that caution be the watchword. I recommend and support a complete moratorium on exploration.
