Power struggle over BC Hydro line in Chetwynd area
Nine families along Highway 97 north near Arras consider a class action to challenge the Dawson Creek Chetwynd Area Transmission project. BC Hydro says most landowners agreed and the process is fair, with compensation tied to statutory rights of way and ratepayer costs. Public consultations occurred in 2011, but some landowners fear undervalued farmland offers and loss of property.
