How is the Sea-to-Sky Highway Improvement Project addressing environmental impacts?
The Sea-to-Sky Highway Improvement Project was subject to a harmonized environmental assessment process at both federal and provincial levels, and received a federal screening decision and provincial environmental assessment certificate in June 2004, allowing the Project to proceed. The Project must comply with applicable provincial and federal environmental guidelines and policies that are current at the time of design and construction, including obtaining all necessary permits and approvals. The Project’s environmental manager and staff develop environmental management plans and meet with the regulatory agencies to discuss how and when work will be conducted in environmentally sensitive areas.
