Site C Focus Draws National Geographic On Peace Region

Photographers Garth Lenz and Jenny Nichols spent a week in the Peace Region documenting Site C dam impacts on the Peace River Valley. Their International League of Conservation Photographers project, picked up by National Geographic News Watch, highlights affected families like Arlene and Ken Boon and the Ardrills, with projected cost at 8 billion dollars and potential taxpayer burden. Lenz questions whether BC Hydro can prove real need, noting local people remain unconvinced as coverage directs readers to the National Geographic piece.
