Regulatory Process & Environmental Assessment
The Project will require a Class 2 Licence under The Environment Act (Manitoba).
The Project’s Environmental Assessment Report will be submitted to Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship for review and approval.
A public review process will take place following submission.
If Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship grants Manitoba Hydro a project licence, construction is anticipated to begin in late 2014.
