Waler Regaurces Minister Bob Williams | has conslruction of a new hydro- electric. dam-on the Peace River, about four miles south- west.of Hudson’s Hope. The estimated cest of the project, known as the Sile One, Project, is about $410 million. “This project’.provides the mosl expenditidus means of “meeting the: increasing power / demands being placed upon us,” said Williams. ‘The environmental ~ adding: this projeci to the Peace | -lareominor; and. the’ energy impacis of oulpul is considerable." “The .prajecl: has been ‘reviewed by a Brilish Columbia | . Alberta Task’ Force; and the Task:Force has concluded that there will be no. significant impact in Alberta:. ‘The Honourable -W.J. Yurko, Minister of the En- _Vvirooment ‘for Alberta, has accepted “(his conclusion; and the Federal Government has approved the project-under the Navigable Waters Protection -.

Further follow up meetings will be held as further work is done on the project.” The project is a ‘'run-of-(he- river”: project, taking full ad- vantage of the storage potential in the Williston reservior, The resulting 14-mile lake.would. be only 3-square miles in tolal area, coinpared with about 640 square miles for the Williston reservior. - , Environmental. problems, ‘ine ‘vestligaled by outside con- sultants . are minimal. The a, 000 acre: reservior will flood 370 acres of terraced or level land and aboul 670 acres of sleap hillside, (he rest heing existing riverbed. Reservior levels will normally vary less than a foot, as lhe level wil be maintained by drawing on Lake Williston. «The site will be cleared ‘before - flooding, no agricutlural land is invalved. and almost all of the - land is Crown-owned, There will’ be no significant change in the pattern of flows in*the Peace River.
