Before I ask Mr. Mackenzie to give some details, I want to assure the panel that the tailings ponds are carefully engineered structures that are built by highly competent geotechnical and other engineers. They are non-trivial structures. This industry takes tailings ponds very seriously in terms of their design and operation and reclamation. The people who design and operate these ponds are fully aware of the need to protect ground and surface water in the design and operation and ultimate reclamation.
With that, I'll turn it over to Mr. Mackenzie.
