Thank you, Mr. Chair. A number of questions there. Mr. Chairman, I think the Member would agree that the rationale for using gravel is as a result of the nature of the landing. The type of soil that’s in that area requires us to use gravel to stabilize the landings. There was a study done in 2001 that looked at the situation and it deemed that the process was adequate. The approaches continue to be utilized because, first of all, it’s cost effective.
Mr. Chairman, we also operate under a water licence that has strict criteria to follow and we are meeting the guidelines.
Mr. Chairman, I also believe that I had responded to the Member at a different opportunity, during question period, to make the commitment that the department would look at the situation this summer as we move forward, and look at the types of options that could be incorporated for this landing. Thank you.
