With the area reduction granted in AR-2, no <br />corresponding reduction in the monitoring program was defined. Four of the surface <br />monitoring points specifically monitor potential impacts from Tailings Ponds #], #2 and <br />#3. BC-1 and BC-2 monitor for impacts from Tailings Ponds #1 and #2 and SCTP3-1 and <br />SCTP3-2 monitor for impacts from Tailings Pond #3 (see attached map). SGC requests <br />clarification that with the release of Tailings Ponds #1, #2 and #3 from the permit area, <br />future monitoring of sites BC-1, BC-2, SCTP3-1 and SCTP-2 would serve no MLR <br />permit purpose and can be discontinued. <br />
