The Joint Review Panel for Site C for BC Hydro's proposed dam was in Peace River Jan. 9 and 10. The panel began its hearings in Fort St. John, in BC, on Dec. 9, 2013, and will conclude in Fort St. John on Jan. 23. Peace River was the only Alberta stop. Concerns have been raised by First Nations both in BC and Alberta as the project would create hydro-electric power for the BC, but would also flood First Nations land and hunting grounds.
