Dear Chief Le<strong>on</strong>:<br />

Re:<br />

Columbia Valley Transmissi<strong>on</strong> (CVT) Project<br />

It was my pleasure to meet you at <strong>the</strong> CVT procedural c<strong>on</strong>ference in Vancouver <strong>on</strong> March<br />

17,2009.<br />

As I menti<strong>on</strong>ed when we spoke <strong>on</strong> March 17,2010, based <strong>on</strong> <strong>the</strong> most recent letter that <strong>the</strong><br />

Lakes Divisi<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Secwepemc Nati<strong>on</strong> (<strong>the</strong> 'Lakes Divisi<strong>on</strong>') sent to <strong>BC</strong> <strong>Hydro</strong> regarding<br />

<strong>the</strong> CVT Project <strong>on</strong> December 10, 2009, which states, "We remain in full support <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Shuswap Indian Band and <strong>the</strong>ir leadership role regarding <strong>the</strong> Columbia Valley Transmissi<strong>on</strong><br />

Project.", I was somewhat surprised to hear your comments that you feel that The Lakes<br />

Divisi<strong>on</strong> may not have been properly c<strong>on</strong>sulted with respect to <strong>the</strong> CVT Project.<br />

As I also menti<strong>on</strong>ed, I am still,8s I have always been, open to fur<strong>the</strong>r discussing c<strong>on</strong>cerns<br />

that <strong>the</strong> Lakes Divisi<strong>on</strong> may have with regard to <strong>the</strong> Project, and your role in supporting <strong>the</strong><br />

Shuswap Indian Band.<br />

Please c<strong>on</strong>tact me at your c<strong>on</strong>venience to set up a meeting to discuss any matters relating to<br />

<strong>the</strong> CVT Project at 604-528-1558, or at Chris.Heard@bchydro.com.<br />
