Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is William Thombury, and I am a journalist for the Hickleton Herald Newspaper. I am researching for an article about the hydroelectric dam in Hickleton. I am writing to ask for more information about the project.

I would like to know how long the project is going to take. There are many unemployed people in Hickleton, and more jobs would help a lot. People would be happy to hear that the project will finish quickly, and jobs will be available soon.

Could you also tell me about its environmental impact? Dams require a reservoir to be made, and the water of a river has to be redirected. The local people would be happy to hear that it will not cause much environmental damage.

I would also appreciate you telling me about how electricity prices may change. The prices are very high here. It would be great to report that the prices will decrease.

Finally, I would like to know about how the dam will look. Hickleton is a very beautiful town, and people travel here for tourism. People want to know that the dam will not make fewer people want to travel here.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully.

William Thombury
