Environmental Assessment - Glacier Power Ltd. Dunvegan Hydroelectric Project - EIA Report and application for approval
Environmental Impact Assessment and associated applications pertaining to the proposed Glacier Power Ltd. Dunvegan Hydroelectric Project. The proposal is for construction of a run-of-river hyro plant including headworks (powerhouse and weir), headpond and power line with a maximum gererating capacity of 100 MW, located 2 km upstream of the Dunvegan highway bridge, near Fairview, Alberta. The EIA was deemed complete in 2008. For more information on the environmental assessment process visit ea.alberta.ca.
