Site C JRP seeks more BC Hydro data on environmental impacts
The Joint Review Panel on the Site C hydro project rejected BC Hydro's amended Environmental Impact Statement and ordered additional information. It cites needs to assess riprap sourcing, flooding effects on the Peace and Moberly Valleys, health service impacts in Fort St. John, Dawson Creek and Chetwynd, and mitigation plans with input from museums and ministries. The panel plans further information requests as it reviews pending comments and data. BC Hydro has responded. next week’s issue will cover more details.
