Final Written Submission &
Recommendations
Recommendation from Fisheries and Oceans
Canada continued:
.
.
NTPC to continue to work with DFO to complete an assessment to determine entrainment
and impingement risks, including turbine mortality, stranding and barotrauma independent
of the Water License Renewal
DFO recommends that shutdowns and water level drawdowns occur as per the Restricted
Activity Timing Window guidance found on our website
NTPC to implement a regular maintenance schedule for cleaning of trash racks to mitigate
impingement and death of fish, and planned shutdown schedules be designed to occur
gradually to mitigate the effects of stranding, with pulse flows
Based on DFO's review of their Request for Review form, DFO may be in a position to
recommend an application for a new Fisheries Act Authorization be submitted to DFO for the
ongoing operation of the Snare Hydroelectric Facility, and associated infrastructure. DFO
recommends that this can be independent of the water license renewal process.
