AI summary
- Board Staff (contact: Chris Jiang, P.Eng.) issued IR-1 through IR-4 on June 22, 2026, with responses due July 14, 2026, directed to Nova Scotia Power Incorporated Manager of Regulatory Capital Lana Myatt regarding Matter M12843 (CI C0044172 – L7005 Canso Crossing Vibration Mitigation).
- IR-1 requests a detailed cost breakdown of the $1,670,755 'Installation of New Vibration Mitigation System' line item from the Capital Project Detailed Estimate (Application file, p.3), including labour rates, hours, materials, and unit costs.
- IR-2 flags that the Havard Engineering report (Attachment 1, pp.15–88) submitted with the application is marked as a draft, and asks NSPI to either provide a final version or explain its absence.
- IR-3 asks NSPI to describe the specific project work performed in response to the recommended action items identified in the Havard Engineering report's Conclusions (Attachment 1, pp.43–44, Sections 7–10).
- IR-4 probes Prudence Reviews concerns: Board Staff cite evidence that the adjacent L8004 Canso Strait crossing suffered severe galloping in 1984 and was remediated with air flow spoilers (Attachment 1, p.9 and p.146), and ask NSPI to explain whether it was aware of those prior issues, why the L7005 design did not incorporate spoilers from the outset, and what the original design approval process entailed.
