B.C. government rejects Pitt power project
Scott Simpson, Vancouver Sun
Published: Wednesday, March 26, 2008
The British Columbia government has rejected a controversial proposal by
an independent electricity project developer to run a power line through
Pinecone Burke Provincial Park, Environment Minister Barry Penner said
today.
The project still requires an environmental approval from the province,
and Run of River must also obtain a power sales agreement with BC Hydro
before it can proceed.
