The Proposed Project

The Department of National Defence (DND) is proposing a project. The project involves reconstruction of a culvert washed away due to the breach of a beaver dam. The second part of the project involves reinforcing the new beaver dam with riprap downstream. The upstream water basin of the dam is essential for firefighting in training areas.
