The process was stalled due to funding to finalize the project with Wright <br />Water Engineers. We have since taken care of the funding issue and have Wright Water <br />finalizing the well permit paperwork with the Division of Water Resources. <br />Western Gravel, Inc. has not forgotten the requirements and their commitment to meet <br />the requirements of the Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety. At this point in <br />time, we are attempting to resolve the water issue by working through the Wright Water <br />Engineers and the Division of Water Resources. I spoke with Peter Foster of Wright <br />Water Engineers who estimated the finalization should be complete by the end of <br />February or shortly before. <br />Western Gravel would like to thank you for working with us during the past year. If you <br />have any other concerns, please contact Judy DeVincentis or Shauna Hovey at 970-249- <br />2431. <br />Sincerely, <br />dC
