Habitat loss cited in BC Hydro dam review hearings
Environmental review hearings begin next month in northeastern British Columbia over a 7.9 billion dollar Peace River dam. The panel questioned mitigation plans and noted gaps in data on bear dens First Nations activities and broader project impacts. Hydro estimates about 2,000 hectares of short eared owl habitat would be lost, with a large reservoir creating an 83 kilometer lake between Fort St John and Hudson's Hope.
