receipt of your correspondence regarding the Metal Mining Effluent Regulations.

You may be assured that your comments have been carefully reviewed. As copies
of your message have already been sent to the Honourable Loyola Hearn, Minister

Environment, I am certain that the Ministers will give your views on this issue
every consideration.

Thank you for writing to the Prime Minister. For more information on the

Good stuff Ex-NLpat. At least you got a response. Just in the last couple of weeks it was Environment Week in NL. Besides my own letter in the telegram, there were two other letters concerning Aur Resources using two ponds in NL. It seems like our environment is not valuable enough for Aur to go the artificial containment route. It has not been mentioned publicly, at least not what I'm hearing anyway, from politicians. Been on CBC Raio a few times. I guess the Gov. of the day is letting this slide so that companies can come in for a short time, and say, "take it or leave it - if you don't let us do the project how we want, then too phucking bad about you." Talk about outsiders determining what we do with our environment, its enough to sicken you.
