Media Advisory: Provincial Government Releases Oversight Report on Muskrat Falls Project
Today, the Provincial Government released the Muskrat Falls Oversight Committee's report for the quarter ending September 2014. The report is available at www.gov.nl.ca/MFoversight/pdf/report_sept_2014.pdf (3.8 MB) and includes an assessment of project costs, schedule, and risk monitoring and mitigation. In addition, it provides information by Nalcor regarding variances and identified risks in response to the committee's questions. The committee's next report will be released in February 2015.
The Muskrat Falls Oversight Committee was established in March 2014 to formalize and strengthen existing oversight of the Muskrat Falls Project. In making its observations, the committee uses an extensive reporting framework, which includes project reports regularly generated by Nalcor, information specifically requested by the committee, and information required by the Independent Engineer.
