Wind power venture eyed for Crown Land near Chetwynd
Natural Forces proposes a Wind Power Investigative License for a 4629 hectare unsurveyed Crown Land site east of Pine River, 15 km south of Chetwynd and 10 km west of Lone Prairie. The plan includes 5 to 10 turbines with community ownership hopes. FrontCounter BC handles the tenure process for the MFLNRO and District of Chetwynd has weighed in. If accepted, development moves to Integrated Land Management Bureau with referrals, consultations, and adjudication. BC hosts three wind farms in operation and more projects cited in regional reports.
