The Canada Infrastructure Bank (“CIB”) is a federal Crown corporation established by the Canada Infrastructure Bank Act. The CIB’s purpose is to invest and seek to attract investment from private sector investors and institutional investors, in infrastructure projects in Canada or partly in Canada that will generate revenue and that will be in the public interest by, for example, supporting conditions that foster economic growth or by contributing to the sustainability of infrastructure in Canada. The CIB develops projects in partnership with federal, provincial, territorial, municipal and Indigenous sponsors and the private sector. The CIB’s investments are focused on five priority sectors: public transit, clean power, green infrastructure, broadband, and trade and transportation. As described in the CIB’s 2020-21 to 2024-25 Corporate Plan, the CIB has set an investment target of $1.5 billion for agriculture-related infrastructure projects, starting with major irrigation projects in Western Canada to help the agriculture sector enhance production, strengthen Canada’s food security, and expand export opportunities. In December 2020, the CIB announced its investment in the Alberta Irrigation Project (the “Project”). The CIB’s financial commitment is structured as a loan in the amount of up to $466 million for permitted project costs. The Government of Alberta will contribute $244.5 million and the irrigation districts (“IDs”) ...

  • I have provided the FAAR for Chin, Deadhorse and Snake Lake Reservoir projects for Kipp Range and Trg Area (RTA) 10 minutes west of Lethbridge.   Kipp RTA is located in the Mixed Grass Subregion of the Grassland Natural Region. Kipp RTA is situated approximately 870m ASL within the Oldman River valley. It is situated on surficial fluvial overbank and channel deposits. Surficial deposits consisted of a thin layer (approximately 1m thick) of silty clay with 10% gravel, which fades into the 90% gravel within the fluvial deposits of the Oldman River valley (EBA Engineering, Natural Resource Inventory 2007)   We are actively assessing SAR on the property.   I do not see any potential impacts of these projects on Kipp RTA.   Garry D.
