1. Corridor alternatives presented during the April 7 pre-ESR consultation have not been included.
2. The ESR relies upon the Technical report contained in Appendix 4 of the Final ESR. These
“working draft” reports were provided to TFTO upon request, but were clearly identified as
working drafts of baseline studies being conducted in support of future potential permit
applications for the Springpole Gold Project. Data from these baseline studies that is relevant to
the ESR is summarized in the final ESR.
3. GCU initiated discussion with various Stakeholders in April 2012 to be able to incorporate their
views in developing the Project. Throughout discussions with stakeholders, GCU has presented
the most up to date information then available.
4. As noted in Section 3.1.4 of the ESR, in mid-May 2012 GCU provided Open House sessions for
CLFN, SFFN, and LSFN, to solicit feedback on the design of the field portions of the baseline
studies. Additionally, FN technicians were hired by GCU to participate in every baseline study
that was conducted on the property.
5. The details of the consultation process are provided in Section 3 of the ESR. Given the scope of
the Project, all parties have had a significant opportunity to review and provide comment. Prior
to submission of the Final ESR, GCU-revised the Project and adopted mitigation measures to
take into account stakeholder concerns.
6. Some submitted letters of concern, others letters/comments in support.
