<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Dear Mr. Schultz,</font></div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial">In a Waterloo Chronicle article dated July 20,
2011, entitled "Quarry Quandry" you are quoted as saying that the proposed
Melancthon mega-quarry <span style=""><font size="3"><font face="Times New Roman">“is not in the Grand River Watershed, it is
east of a shared boundary.<span style=""> </span>It is
entirely contained within the Nottawasaga
Watershed.”</font></font></span></font></div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style=""><font size="3"><font size="2" face="Arial"></font></font></span></font> </div>
<div><span style=""><font face="Arial"><font size="2">I have
attached a .pdf of the source protection boundary maps from the GRCA
website. The southwest extraction area of the proposed mega-quarry most
definitely impacts the Grand River watershed. </font></font></span><span style=""><font face="Arial"><font size="2">Interestingly,
there is so much water in this area that the Highland Companies focuses on the
southwest extraction area as their first extraction operation to get a
handle on the water management (see the Highland Companies video at <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.highlandcompanies.ca/">http://www.highlandcompanies.ca/</a>).</font></font></span></div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Even if there are differing versions of
these GRCA boundary maps, the fact remains that the mega-quarry is close enough
to have impact on the Grand River if for any reason the water in the
area does not stick to the little blue lines on the map. Also, keep in
mind that the proposed technology is
new, Highland is inexperienced and the whole proposal for
the largest quarry in Canada untried enough to be dangerous. I would
think that the GRCA would be a little less cavalier with the
responsibility of protecting the Grand River watershed and the drinking
water of an estimated one million people.</font></div>
