O N T A R I O S N E W C L E A N E N E R G Y C O R R I D O R Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One) has initiated an Undertaking under Ontarios Environmental Assessment Act (The Act) to build an approximately 180 kilometre double-circuit 500,000 volt (500 kV) transmission line on a widened existing transmission corridor connecting the Bruce Power Facility (Bruce) to Hydro Ones switching station in Milton (Milton). As part of the planning process for the Bruce to Milton Transmission Reinforcement Project, an Environmental Assessment (EA) proposed Terms of Reference (ToR) was submitted to the Ministry of the Environment for review as required under The Act on August 3, 2007. The proposed ToR has since been amended based on public and agency comments and Hydro One is now resubmitting it to the Ministry of the Environment. The amended document is being made available for review from January 2 to February 4, 2008, to allow the public, First Nations, Ms, agencies and stakeholders to provide comments. If approved, the EA ToR will serve as a framework for the preparation and review of the environmental assessment for the proposed Undertaking. The purpose of the Undertaking is to increase the capacity of the Bruce to Milton transmission corridor to transmit electrical power from committed and future sources in the Bruce area to the provincial grid by December 1, 2011, or as soon as this can be achieved. This will increase supply adequacy and transmission security for the people of Ontario. The amended ToR is available on the project website at: www.HydroOneNetworks.com/BrucetoMilton; and by calling the toll-free Project Hotline at 1-877-345-6799 for a copy of the document on CD.
