I oppose the path proposed for the Transmission line, it is planned to cut through private properties and sensitive habitat. Specifically it will affect not only my property, which is in the direct path, but also my business that I have spent over 8 years developing.
I have an off-grid farm and business and having large power transmission towers running through the property or nearby landscape is something I am opposing as it will completely ruin my business.
If Taseko Mining is interested in continuing this project, I recommend they follow existing routes that will not damage local habitat that is already strained and under severe stress from forest fires and logging with no replanting. Further infrastructure and construction will only harm it more and damage the already dwindling population of wildlife in the region. Some areas have animals not found elsewhere and this would impact their habitat completely.
For those reasons I oppose the path of the transmission line and hope that if the corporation continues to pursue this project, it finds alternative, less destructive ways of getting power to it.- Date submitted
