Chetwynd Watches Gething Coal Project Start

The British Columbia environmental assessment process for the Gething Coal Project by Dehua International Mines Group has begun near Chetwynd twenty five kilometres west of Hudson's Hope. The underground mine aims for two million tons of clean metallurgical coal annually with no rail route decided yet. Mayor Evan Saugstad and council seek regular updates on the process haul routes and rail load out sites while noting First Nations concerns in the West Moberly Saulteau area and potential use of foreign workers if local labor is unavailable.

Pilot discretion shapes Mount Dolinski landing decisions

Dolinski notes Transport Canada rules govern landings but interpretation varies. Pilots consider terrain familiarity and weather to balance safety of crew and patient. Whenvisual flight rules apply, safety remains the priority, with the pilot’s comfort guiding the final call.

Snowstorms carry large price tags

Chetwynd public works chief Garry Kaulbach reports 2006 snow removal and ice control costs at 127,922 plus 60,000 for landing, totaling about 190,000 against a 109,000 budget. He says reserves of 70,000–80,000 were depleted, leaving zero for 2007 unless winter weather improves. He notes five plowings in 2005 and five to seven more this winter, and urges residents not to dump snow in streets or haulage sites.
