In this letter Mary Harnett indicated that, "... we (Lafarge) are uncertain whether or not <br />the berms on the south and west sides of site will be left in place. We will be using material from <br />those berms to complete the reclamation. If it turns out that there is more material than needed <br />the berms, or portions of them, may remain in place." <br />Based on that Sept 5, 2003 letter from Lafarge, the DMG approved the Technical Revision <br />(TROT) in a letter dated September 15, 2003 addressed to Eric Reckentine. <br />Lafarge wishes to rescind the statements made in TRO1 and would like to emphasize that: <br />(i) Mining is NOT complete in the area referred to in TRO1 <br />(ii) The berms located in the areas referenced in TROT are NOT permanent; they will be <br />used to reclaim the area once mining is completed. <br />LAFARGE NORTH AMERICA INC. -Lafarge Construction Materials <br />1400 West 64'" Avenue.
