Proposed Project

George Gordon First Nation is proposing to build a new fire hall in a greenfield site. The new building will have a total square footage of 509 m2. The project will also require new water servicing with an existing waterline upgrade/replacement, sewer servicing with a septic tank/mound, gas, power, and telephone servicing. There will also be an emergency generator and a 100kW Solar PV Array and associated equipment.

The waterline upgrade to support the additional requirements for the new firehall project. The route for the waterline upgrade is expected to be installed within the existing road ditch of Highway 640 to the existing sewage pumping station in the main community.
