I would like clarification on the Snare Lake fuel tank construction. In looking at Hansard yesterday, the question was asked, "What size tanks and how many were going into Snare Lake?" At one point, the Minister said there were five 20,000 gallon fuel tanks, and another he said five 90,000 litre tanks. I assume it is the same thing, but can he clarify?

I need just one other clarification on Fort Smith, for Snare Lakes. Is part of this tank farm for the power corporation, too?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Petroleum products are currently delivered and stored in 205 litre drums. We have to have an increase to five 90,000 litre steel berm tanks for heating fuel. Heating fuel and gasoline are going into those tanks.

For the record, it is not for the purpose of providing fuel for power generators, then?

If the NWT Power Corporation buys fuel, it pays the market price.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. With the increased tank capacity for Arviat, I would like to find out if these tanks are going to be used also by the power generator. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. On the scope of work on these fuels -- P50 heating fuel and gasoline -- what is existing in Arviat is, 3.369 million litres for fuel, 371,000 litres for gas and we are going to expand that to 6.536 million litres for fuel and 1.383 million for gas. We also have a problem in Arviat that the horizontal tanks that are there now are sinking, so we have to redo that and the berm, as well as the fencing. So, there will be adequate fuel for all needs in the future.

Mr. Chairman, that means that the power corporation is planning to move the power plant out of the centre of the community. Will these tanks be able to take in the fuel required by the power generator? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It would meet all of the fuel needs for the community. That must include the NWT Power Corporation.
