Since at least Sunday, July 4, an intense amount of aerial surveying has been underway in West Quebec.
A four-engine propeller plane with four-corner wiring and objects being dragged behind the aircraft on cables has been spotted near Duclos, East-Aldfield and Thorne. It appears to be flying grid patterns with very tight parallel lines (perhaps 200 metres apart). The plane flies very low and very slowly.
The aircraft lettering says Fugro. Fugro is a wordwide company with operations in several locations in Canada including Ottawa. According to its web site Fugro provides survey services including:
"Airborne photogrammetry, lidar, and radar mapping; topographic, hydrographic and geological surveying; geospatial data production and management; support services for offshore and onshore construction projects; precise positioning."

The big question is who is Fugro working for?
Stay tuned for photos and video.....

We are a community group that works to protect our human, environmental, and economic health from the risks associated with uranium. Our goal is to obtain a permanent moratorium on uranium exploration, mining, and processing in MRC du Pontiac and MRC des Collines de l'Outaouais. To meet this goal our group advocates, educates, and builds coalitions.
