Drag Lake Dam South Construction Update
November 5, 2021 –Parks Canada would like to notify the public of a change to the hours of work for the Drag Lake Dam South replacement project.
Since project commencement in August, the contractor was instructed to work within the hours of 7:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, and Saturdays as necessary.
