We respectively request that the issue of stability of the Minnesota Reservoir be looked at very <br />carefully and studied, before West Elk is allowed to continue with this present proposed mining <br />of the "E" seam in close proximity to the Reservoir. We would like to see West Elk share in the <br />liability concerning the people and property downstream if the dam should fail. There are 173 <br />shareholders in this Reservoir, some use it for there livelihood. All need the water, it is a <br />valuable resource. <br />We, the Board of the Minnesota Canal and Reservoir Co. Inc. we would like to be included in all <br />future meetings dealing with the matter of this expansion. <br />Cc : James G. Norfleet, P.E., State Dam Safety Engineer <br />Phil Schmidt, West Elk Mine <br />Michael McCarthy, Attorney-at-Law <br />Sincerely, <br />Minnesota Canal and Reservoir Co.
