Overview

We are planning to relocate approximately 25 kilometres of the line between Chalk River Junction (JCT) in the township of Laurentian Hills and Petawawa JCT in Petawawa.
 

The relocation of the line will allow crews to safely perform refurbishment work on equipment nearing the end of its service life and minimize impacts to military activities.

We are reinitiating the project Class Environmental Assessment for Transmission Facilities (Hydro One, 2024), in accordance with the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act for this project.

We’re here to help you
