SaskPower to begin restoration work on the site of former Estevan Generating Station

SaskPower bought the plant in 1948.   By adding five boilers and four turbine generators, the plant operated with a total capacity of 70.4 megawatts. The station remained open until 1992, when the addition of the Shand Power Station eliminated the need for its generating capacity.  Facility decommissioning began in the spring of 1994.   The Estevan Generating Station used lignite coal and diesel fuel. When it was decommissioned, the power plant building was demolished and tanks and other hazardous materials were removed.  Beginning in August, SaskPower contractors will be removing contaminated soil on the Souris River shoreline and removing exposed concrete foundations. This work will improve the shoreline slope and prevent soil erosion into the river. The area will be reseeded once the work is complete, which is expected to be in September.
