Description
Description | This project includes the construction, rehabilitation and expansion of five structural assets in order to increase the fuel storage capacity by addressing the current vulnerabilities such as location, age and accessibility issues. Once complete, the project is expected to minimize impact of wildfires by mitigating the supply line risks for the provision of Diesel, Gasoline and Jet Fuel to various communities in the Northwest Territories. The Government of Northwest Territories estimates that this project will reduce the number of residents without essential services by 91%, the local economic losses by 80%, and the number of directly affected people by 75%. |
