Hi Tom,
We've decided to withdraw our objection to the Kinnakeet Sand Mine project. We trust
the Environmental Management Commission will conduct a thorough review of the project
and make an appropriate determination on the variance request.

Jim - Thanks for your response. I guess I misspoke in that we did not distribute
Jan's letter to the EMC/WQC, although for some reason I was under the impression
that some of the members were aware of its contents. For your information I have
attached the Public Notice for the Public Meeting on Aug 3rd. Thanks.

Hi Tom,
I did receive your voice mail when I returned from Raleigh on Friday. Did I
understand you to say that you distributed our letter to members of the Water
Quality Committee or EMC? If so, when did this occur?
After listening to the discussion at the EMC meeting, I conferred with Todd
Miller on the variance request. Our next step will be to confer with Jan
DeBlieu, who is on a well deserved two week vacation and will not be back in
the office until July 31. In the meantime, I conducted additional research on
the variance request and attempted to weigh the likely impacts and relative
significance of the points we raised in our letter. I will get back to you in
about a week with an answer to your question. If there is a reason you require
an answer before then, please let me know. I can be reached at 252-241-7313 on
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week.
I can tell you that we do not plan to formally intervene in the variance
request.
I have heard that a public meeting is scheduled for August 3. Do you have
additional details?
Jim

Jim - Just checking to see if you received my voice mail last week inquiring
as to NCCF's current position on the proposed variance for the Kinnakeet
Mine on Hatteras Island. I know we received the original letter from Jan
DeB. but since then we have heard that the Coastal Fed no longer actively
opposes the variance. Alan K, our Director, wanted me to check and see if
you all had softened your stance on this. Thanks for your help.
