The Proposed Project
Dokis First Nation is expanding hydro services to new homes along Pine Crescent within Dokis First Nation Territory. This will result in 10 residential lots being serviced with hydro. To accomplish this new hydro line, a 5 metre clearing of trees and shrubs will need to be completed, and new hydro poles will be installed along the way.
Please note that Dokis First Nation has assessed this project under their First Nation lands Management Agreement, and have determined that this project will have negligible environmental impacts
