We’re closing in on two weeks since the evacuation of Churchill Falls, but there’s no sign of the evacuation order being lifted anytime soon.
The forest fire nearest the town remains a Category One as firefighters continue to battle the blaze, which remains 3 to 4 km from town.
Anybody who plans to travel the Trans-Labrador Highway should keep in mind that there is no access to Churchill Falls.
Hydro says there will be a brief power outage this evening at about 6:00 in Lab City as they return to full supply from Churchill Falls.
