Project to replace the boathouse and wharf and rehabilitate the workshop

The French River Dam complex includes a wharf, boathouse and workshop. Structural inspection had identified that the boathouse and wharf had reached the end of their service life. The boathouse and wharf were replaced with similar structures with a smaller footprint. The workshop foundation was rehabilitated to meet building code requirements.

In support of Indigenous reconciliation, the procurement process for construction was only open to Indigenous companies in accordance with the Set-aside Program for Indigenous Business. The project team had contacted and consulted with the local Dokis First Nation, as well as authorities having jurisdiction.
