An environmental review of a $404-million power line, expected to bring benefits to Prince George, is back on track after a delay requested by B.C. Hydro.
It kicks the 180-review period back into gear, which now must be complete by Wednesday.
A package containing the environmental assessment, recommendations and supporting documents will be in the hands of the environment minister by Thursday, said Kathy Eichenberger, who is overseeing the project for the B.C. Environmental Assessment Authority.
The minister, Murray Coell, has 45 days to hand down a decision after he receives the package.
The Crown agency requested the delay before Christmas to give the federal government more time to complete its review work. There had been three separate delays.
Without the delays, the review should have been complete in October.
