Rita,
 
In response to EC's comments on our submission for camp & drilling near
Nadluardjuk Lake NWB2NAD0101:

*	Camp sump will be about 5'x5.5'x2' deep. 

*	Drill sumps may be as small as 4'x4'x2' as the core diametre is
small (BQ), holes will be shallow (30 to 300 metres), and drill fluids will
be recirculated through a cuttings removal syatem. 

*	 I cannot provide any details of fuel cache positions because we do
not yet even have official clearance from DND to again use the West Baffin
or Dewar sites. Were this permissionin place, we would still not have any
precise idea of cache locations - these will arise only upon first-hand
examination of the sites and be guided by the DIAND land use regulations and
BHPB's environmental protocols. That said, because this programme would be
supported from an airstrip (as opposed to lake landings), it is highly
probable that any caches would be on the existing runway apron and well
beyond the 30m metre distance stipulated by DIAND regs. It should be noted
as well that fuel will not be cached enmasse but will be gradually brought
in to bulk out supply flights.

If questions remain, please cal  me at (604) 632-1451.

Hi again,
While reviewing this file, we noticed that EC didn't have enough information
about the sump volume and location of fuel caches.  I'm attaching their
comments to this e-mail. If you could provide a response to these concerns
and cc. them to the EC e-mails attached, we can proceed with the processing
of this application.
Thanks,
