One relates to groundwater and aquifer Ref.: 2000525/JR07 and the other to WATER LEVEL MANAGEMENT PLAN Ref.: NR174584.

Why has no one responded to the WLMP request, when will we receive a response to that?

Please advise when we might receive a reply to this, or with great reluctance we will have to seek an internal review as to why you are ignoring our request.
