Thank you, Mr. Chair. We have developed a runway vulnerability protocol, working in conjunction with researchers so that we can know, assess what the impact is of climate change on our runways. We are in the process of applying that vulnerability to Norman Wells, Yellowknife, Inuvik and the Fort Simpson runways, so that work is underway.
In terms of Inuvik specifically, we always appreciate when we get historic views of what the situation, what the conditions were like before the runway was there, because it does help to understand what might be happening underneath the runway when we have these types of challenges.
We were aware that in that particular spot there was an old lake and/or water moving underneath that spot, and that will help us as we move forward to come up with the long-term, permanent fix. The solution that was applied just in the last few weeks is a temporary repair. We also have some money to do some additional engineering, so we will go in, do some testing and try to understand exactly what the problem is. Then we will use that to design the permanent repair, which should occur next summer. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
