Falling Creek Connector

Allnorth Consultants Limited was contracted by Western Canadian Coal Corp. in November 2008 to analyze the most cost effective method of transporting coal from its Brule Pit (approximately 40 kms southwest of Chetwynd) to its Falls Mountain Coal processing plant and load-out (approximately 45kms west of Chetwynd). The analysis involved five distinct options that compared variations in haul route, road specifications and truck configuration. Capital and operating expense requirements of each scenario over an eight year projected operating period were used to derive an economic cost benefit summary of options.
