Other Water Projects Happening in the Region
MONTNEY WATER PROJECT
The Montney Shale Gas Play in northeast British Columbia is a world-class unconventional natural gas resource. Operations in the Montney are moving into development drilling, which will increase the demand for water and deep sites for the disposal of fluids. Provincial, First Nations and local governments, industry, communities, and environmental groups all want to ensure that water sources are carefully managed during natural gas development. http://www.geosciencebc.com/s/Montney.asp
