We’ve reached a major construction milestone on the Eagle Mountain – Woodfibre Gas Pipeline Project with the successful competition of the 3.5-kilometre tunnel beneath the Skwelwil’em Squamish Estuary Wildlife Management Area (Skwelwil’em Squamish Estuary). The tunnelling approach was developed to comply with the Squamish Nation Environmental Assessment Agreement (SNEAA) and to protect the estuary. We acknowledge and thank Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw for their continued engagement throughout design and construction of this tunnel segment. To learn more about this collaboration and the innovative construction approach used, please read our blog and watch Meeting in the Middle – A Tunnelling Journey documentary.Construction activities continue on the remaining 5.5-kilometre hard rock tunnel section beneath Monmouth Mountain. Once tunnelling is complete, work will shift to installing the new natural gas pipelines within the tunnel, which will run from the BC Rail site in Squamish to the Woodfibre LNG site.If you have any questions about the Project, we encourage you to reach out to the FortisBC team at [email protected] or 1-855-380-5784.
