Gravel pits/quarries are found in abundance all over the island - there must be alternatives to this project. Tourism is a proven suistanable industry that generates revenues for other industries in the province, and in this case we are talking of effects on a reputable year round business that contributes to NL's image as a prime tourism destination.

I am writing in support of the Stop the Exploits River Gravel/Sand Quarry. As a business owner myself, I have featured products at the Riverfront Chalet Site, which is one of Central Newfoundland's gems for accomodations. To proceed with this quarry would absolutely ruin the entire concept around the business that has been built up by Paul and Joy Rose and would have negative effects reaching beyond this one location.

I respectfully request that you reconsider.

Rafting the river is a wonderful experience for all. I have spent most of my life next to this river but have never been on it or in it. Not until we had the rafting experience. There is no need of a pit placed near a river and we are hoping the Gov sees this. PLus why destoy a busines to aid in the profits of another when the other business really can get their product elseware.
