Gap Filler Radar
P66-D - Eaglet River, Ont
As a result of repeated surveys of the subject gap filler site, construction consultants have confirmed that the cost of constructing an access road into the facility would amount to $900,000. Such a cost would be prohibitive and it will be necessary, therefore, for the transportation of construction, radar and telephone company equipment to be carried out by helicopter airlift.
Attached is a copy of Treasury Board Minute 566358 dated 29 Sep 60 which authorized $417,000 for the construction of this site. Of the amount, $150,000 was allocated for access road construction and docking facilities. It will be necessary to arrange a transfer of the $150,000 from construction to a transportation primary.
It is requested that your staff prepare the necessary submission for transfer of the allocated funds.
