Most contracts for Right of Way clearing and, to a certain extent, foundation installations on the Wataynikaneyap Power Transmission Project were awarded to a Joint Venture involving one or more of our First Nation owners.

A truck for transporting access mats works between Lac Seul First Nation and Slate Falls First Nation. The access mats bridge over soft and wet terrain on the Right of Way. The use of access mats also minimizes impacts to the land from rutting. The vehicle pictured here is part of a First Nation joint venture business.
