Hi Jennifer,
Scudder and I talked about this yesterday. We thought it would be appropriate to contact Mr. Plate
in light of the new information. This is consistent with our previous contacts with the agencies, that
we would review the legacy information if anything happened. We will schedule a conversation,
develop a record of the correspondence, and add that to the Legacy discussion. We hope to
schedule the discussion once we’re through the USFW letter. It should be possible to complete this
prior to finalizing the draft supplemental final. If they have no funding source, feasibility study, or
project plan, it won’t change our conclusions, but we’ll withhold judgment until we have the
conversation.

Thank you Colin.
Yes, there was some information about Legacy provide to us by Jamal (attached). We can continue
to monitor the proposal, it sounds as if it is being revamped. Not sure if other components have
been reevaluated in light of the revamping (funding, zoning, etc.).
I assume (so please correct me if I am mistaken), that Baker will incorporate the comments provided
Wednesday by Catena and these comments from Colin.
I agree that all memos and reports that have overlapping information should be closely reviewed for
consistency.
We can talk more about this on Monday at 3:00.
Thanks and have a nice weekend everyone,
Jennifer

Comments attached. Nothing major. As far as I can tell all the questions raised in the letter are
addressed.

I did hear the other night at the MUMPO meeting that LEGACY had been scaled back from the
“proposed” 5000 acres to around 200 acres. Is there any planning evidence of this?

I would like to make a request (although I’m sure its being done) that we make sure that all these
update letters/memos etc. and the updated ICE are put side-by-side, before they are finalized and
circulated, and sections that are common between documents are consistent.

Thanks. Sorry for the delay. Have a good weekend.
