letter to Woodstock Engineering Consultants Ltd. dated April 3, 1)74.
It is our contention that the weather during the period from June 2
to July 8 was more than suitable for the required off-shore drilling.
The lake is the calmest from daybreak until approximately 11.00 a.m.
After this time the lake becomes quite choppy until late in the •
evening.. To our knowledge the drilling rig did not leave the harbour
until 10.00 a.m. arriving on the site in time for the rougher water.
The raft used for the drilling oneration was far from adenuate for
lake use. Enclosed is a copy of the letter Golder Associates to
Woodstock Engineering Consultants Ltd.., Trusting you will review
this account and adjust it accordingly.
