Would ycc state your name and address please?

A.

Alan Gregcry, G regory Geoscience Ltd. ,1750 Corkwood Crescent, Ottawa, Canada K 2 C2E5 .

A statement of my qualifications will follow.

Q. Wha:

have fou done in relation to tne Skacit Nuclear Pr o:e ct ?

A. Tuo independent sarmary analyses of continued aero-magnetic data and Landsat-Sattelite data were completed

i. six mar.-d ays cf work.

To date these analyses have yet to be integra:cd with each other or with krown ge ography, t op o gr ap hy , or other da ta.

C. W Lid yc- express your centative conclusiens ?

A. A cc Ple: :f older east striking f aults occurs in the S :agit Eivsr Val'ay and, to a lesser extent, south of the 7 alley. A 'Oc: plex c f your.ge r , 59 northwest striking ~ k h

7011200 t

f aults and shear zones cut and offset the older faults.

The younger faults are subparallel to, and include, the proposed Bellingham Bay-Lake Chaplin f ault. North striking faults of undetermined relative age occur also.

The thrust plane of a Church Mountain-Decatur plate has not been defined yet. In the immediate vicinity of the plant site there are two east striking f aults with major strike offset. Of these two east, west trending faults, one ccmes within 1/2 mile of the southern boundary to the proposed plant site, the other two north striking faults of undetermined magnituo= can be found along the eastern border of the proposed plant site. These f aults are quite different f rom those proposed by EdCon.

Q. Will you be refining your analysis?

A. Yes, and I will submit expanded testimony at that time.
