In the wee hours of Wednesday, October 9, AltaLink’s south lines crew executed a special project in Banff National Park. Osprey had chosen energized equipment on one of our transmission structures to build a nest, posing a risk to their safety and to the safety and reliability of the electric system. To mitigate the risk, the team installed deterrents on the energized equipment and a new artificial nesting platform at a safe location on the structure. Osprey are known to come back to the same nest every season. They often select power poles as nest locations due to their height and unobstructed views of waterbodies where they hunt for fish which make up more than 90% of their diet. This work required a power outage, so AltaLink selected the middle of the night during a time of milder temperatures, to minimize the impacts to local businesses and residents. One benefit of doing this work in the middle of the night? The chance to capture the aurora borealis. 📷 Photo credit: Jordie McKenzie, transmission construction specialist.
