Pellatt, Commission Secretary Dear Sir: Re: Terasen Gas (Vancouver Island) Inc. ( TGVI ) and Terasen Gas (Whistler) Inc. ( TGW ) TGW 2005 Resource Plan Update, and TGW Application to convert Propane Grid to Natural Gas, and TGVI Application to construct Natural Gas Pipeline from Squamish to Whistler Revision to Response for Ministry of Energy and Mines Information Request ( IR ) No. 1, We refer to our response to Ministry of Energy and Mines IR No. 1, 5.1, and in particular the schedule attached as "Summary of First Nations Meetings and Presentations". It has come to our attention that the last four entries on, identified as "Off the record discussions" should not have been included in the response. It had previously been agreed by Terasen and the Squamish Nation that these discussions would not constitute "consultation" in the formal sense. We therefore enclose a revised, omitting the references to these four meetings. We apologize for any inconvenience this error may have caused. Yours truly, Original signed by Tom Loski For: Scott A.
