Mr. Chairman, to date we have two projects that work has been done on for the estimated cost of about $240,000. Those are the access roads to the Willow River gravel source in Aklavik and Highway No. 3 vulnerability assessment, and what we are looking at for 2010-11 is the risk assessment of NWT Transportation system using Indian and Northern Affairs Canada Adapting to Climate Change, a risk-based guide for arctic and northern communities. We want to do consultation of stakeholders in communities and all levels of government on the findings of the risk assessment. We are looking at some roundtable workshops on the impacts of climate change on winter roads and marine ferry operations. Some of the resources will be put towards a Department of Transportation’s Climate Change Adaptation Plan and work will be done on airport runway embankment and sub-grade classification and monitoring study as well as the Dempster Highway permafrost monitoring study. Thank you.
