Land Requirements
Gap Filler Radar Station Tobermory, Ontario
Treasury Board approval has not yet been received for construction of any of the Gap Filler Radar Stations, consequently, no engineering work has been done on land requirements for this site. The question of whether the site will be located on the Ralph or Spears property has also not been considered yet.
Under the circumstances, it is considered that DOT should take no further action until approval for this work has been received.
