measures to halt operations and protect them if any are inadvertently discovered during drilling <br /> operations. <br /> The Slick Rock area is a treasured resource for the residents and visitors of San Miguel <br /> County and the operator should be required to be especially vigilant in its care for the landscape <br /> should exploration be approved. However, authorizing exploratory drilling in this location cannot be <br /> uncoupled from a consideration of the future potential for uranium mining in the same location. That <br /> would be an unacceptable outcome and an incompatible use of the land. For these reasons as well <br /> as the extensive deficiencies in the Notice of Intent submitted by Highbury Resources, we <br /> respectfully request that the application be denied. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Mason Osgood <br /> Executive Director <br /> Sheep Mountain Alliance <br /> P.O.
