Pacific originally stated that the feasibility study for the McAdoo Landfill would be completed by December 2007, why the delay?
Answer – The assessment phase of the McAdoo Landfill began in mid August 2007. The four stages of this investigation involved 1. a site survey, 2. a geophysical survey, 3.open pit testing, and 4. drilling. We were hopefull that we might be able to obtain a feasibility study by just completing the first three stages of the investigation. We now realize that drilling must be completed to provide an accurate assessment. The City of Kingston rightly decided that drilling can only take place on frozen ground. As such, the City of Kingston granted Poly-Pacific an extension to the access agreement to allow this stage to take place. Weather permitting, we expect to begin the drilling program in the early part of 2008, with the feasibility study to follow.
