Wapiti coal plant faces provincial fire amid opposition
TUMBLER RIDGE The Wapiti Power Development Project near Tumbler Ridge has drawn protests from environmental groups including Sierra Club of Canada and Wildsight since its September approval. Chetwynd Mayor Evan Langstad says council has not taken a formal stand, while environmental groups urge BC to embrace renewable energy and curb emissions. The project plans to present details after environmental assessment, with opponents warning of high air pollutants and greenhouse gases. A joint letter to Premier Campbell from nine groups calls for a new energy policy prioritizing clean air and climate action, avoiding coal.
