Encana begins Sunset Prairie Lodge camp near Dawson Creek
Construction starts on a large oil and gas work camp near Dawson Creek that could house up to 2,500 workers, surpassing many regional municipalities. Encana says dirt work is underway and housing could begin in early 2015, with broader projects planned over the next two to three years. Local business leaders warn of infrastructure strain and seek local contracting, while officials call for better information on camp locations. The project aims to boost Montney shale operations and may create 15 to 25 permanent Dawson Creek jobs, with Encana pledging significant regional investment.
