Temporary Water Supply Well

Dear Mr. May
Per your discussion with Chandler Stroud, recent changes have been made with the
gland water systems to improve efficiency. There will now be a primary and secondary
gland water supply well at each location, increasing the number of required wells from 3
to 6.
Please see the attached application for well construction of six (6) temporary water
supply wells in the active mining area at the Nutrien — Aurora facility.
Well construction is estimated to begin May 1, 2023
Please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone], if I can answer any questions or
provide any additional information concerning this application.
