Appendix 1 – Revised Underwater Acoustic Assessment [to include bubble curtain mitigation]
Appendix 2 – Underwater Acoustic Assessment of Marine Terminal Construction
Modelling studies that combine the results from two individually assessed projects that will occur concurrently in the Kitimat area: Rio Tinto Alcan marine terminal facilities for LNG export and LNG Canada’s marine terminal expansions. The reports assess the effects of vibratory and impact pile driving from the combined activities on marine fauna, including humpback whales, killer whales, and harbour porpoise.
