Dear Mr. Miller,
This is in response to the phone call you made to me regarding a complaint related to shot 17 and
subsequently shot 18. Shots 17 and 18 were stripping shots and shots 16 and 19 were production shots.
I have reviewed the information from these reports and found it to be well within the limits of our
permit. Included in this information are the shot reports along with seismograph results and show
layout diagrams. Please let me know you
Please let me know if there is anything you need further related to this request.
Respectfully,
