He said, if they continue blasting as they have recently, <br />no protective shield would he needed. <br />I will try to keep a close eye on the progress of this situation, and I would <br />welcome any comments you have on this matter as it develops. <br />Sincerely, <br />Peter H. Evans <br />Reclamation Specialist <br />PHE:mab <br />Enclosure <br />cc: Li Cheri <br />Chuck Silengo w/enclosure <br />
