Hi, LE:

Yes, I understand that QEC and GMR operate under stringent safeguards. But are they this stringent? Would this kind of ruling in Quebec impact the acreage available for us to drill?

The New York Department of Environmental Conservation has recommended that no drilling take place within 500 feet of New York's 18 primary aquifers, within 4,000 feet of the New York City and Syracuse watersheds and within 2,000 feet of rivers or streams.
