Now that the British Columbia government has given the go-ahead to build three run-of-river generating stations and a 45-mile transmission line in the Upper Lillooet River Valley, the winning joint-venture and engineering teams are working through the 37 conditions that come with the approval.
The $420-million project will proceed only if the developer, Creek Power Inc., maintains minimum in-stream flow requirements and monitors temperature and ice conditions for the life of the 230-KW project, government officials say.
