Pelly Bay is

a) a body of water, not a population centre
b) listed by the geographical names of Canada at 68° 53' 00" N - 90° 05' 00" W, so not officially in this graticule.

I am changing the graticule name to Kugaaruk, after a hamlet located at 68° 32' 05" N - 89° 49' 30" W.

I understand this name was computer-generated, so I'm not offending anyone here. -Robyn 15:05, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
