Investigative Field Studies

To support Project routing and design, Westcoast is conducting investigative geotechnical and environmental studies. These studies will help identify any environmental or geotechnical factors that should be considered in designing the Project and in developing mitigation.

Environmental studies include surveys of fish and fish habitats, wildlife, vegetation, soil, watercourses, wetlands, air quality and archaeology assessments. Geotechnical studies aim to understand geological conditions beneath the surface for optimal pipeline routing design.
