Back to the business at hand.....

There are two things we're looking for going forward, in the near future, to indicate that Teck is making progress and both of them relate to the environmental assessment progress.

1. That EA for the road that everyone is so keen on. Elmer separated the road part of the EA out from the rest of it so that it could be prioritized. That would seem to imply we'll see that application show up first and we're hoping this year.

2. The BCHydro study should be wrapping up soon, and then Teck would have to sign an agreement with them to move forward on building the transfer station, etc. This might also require EA approval.

The website has resurrected two sections that used to be there, the Geology & Technical Reports section and the Environmental Assessments section. I hope this is because there will be new entries soon. The BC Hydro study and the road EA are the logical choices.

I don't know if it will help our stock price, but it should encourage us to believe Teck is moving forward quickly.
