Mt. Milligan Copper/Gold Project

Procure and construct 91 km of 230-kV transmission line from Kennedy substation in Mackenzie, British Columbia, to the new Mount Milligan Gold and Copper Mine, located 155 km northwest of Prince George. Incredibly rough terrain resulted in a significant portion of the work being completed with helicopter construction. Despite the challenging work conditions and over 67,000 man-hours logged, Valard crews finished the job without a single lost-time incident. In addition to being completed safely, the project was also delivered on schedule and on budget.
