Mark Butler ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2001 19:49:15 -0230 From: Janet Russell <janet@alder.nf.ca> To: unlisted-recipients:; (no To-header on input) Subject: Open Air this Wednesday Night: Challilo Sorry for the confusion last week when we meant to run this program but ran a Mushroom picking show instead! This week on Open Air: Challilo: A River in Belize Runs Through Newfoundland Part 1 Fortis Inc., a Newfoundland company, proposes to build a hydro dam called Challilo on the Macal River in Belize. The Challilo dam and Fortis Inc. are at the center of an international controversy over whether the important riparian habitat in the area is worth more as wildlife habitat than the electricity it would generate when flooded. An Environmental Impact Assessment has recently been submitted for the project in Belize. The public has 30 days to respond. The EIA predicts the extirpation of Scarlet Macaws in Belize and major long-term regional effects on migratory birds from North America as well as on other wildlife in the area if the proposed dam is built. This week Open Air begins a visit to Belize and the Headquarters of Fortis Inc in St. John's to find out more. Join us 9 pm Newfoundland time (that's 7:30 EST) Wednesday night for one hour on CHMR 93.5 FM.
