People in the North Okanagan may notice low-flying helicopters in the sky, but it’s not a cause for concern.
To make sure the gas system continues to operate safely and reliably, FortisBC is performing aerial inspections of its high-pressure natural gas transmission lines.
The operation started Friday, April 26, and will continue until June 15.
To inspect the lines, Talon Helicopters will be performing low-level flyovers throughout the North Okanagan using LaSen’s aerial LiDAR detection technology.
For more information about this inspection work, call 1-888-224-2710 or visit fortisbc.com/communityupgrades.
