Character, community, and commitment

Our work

Coast Mountain Hydro Services operates a collection of three run-of-river hydroelectric facilities — Forrest Kerr (195 MW), McLymont (66 MW), and Volcano (17 MW) Hydro Projects. Located in Northwest British Columbia, Canada, our facilities are situated with the Coast Mountain Range to the west and Skeena Mountains to the east, approximately 100 km from the town of Stewart. The Forrest Kerr Hydro Project sits between the McLymont Creek and Volcano Creek Hydro Projects.

Our commitment

We are committed to upholding our environmental and social responsibilities while maintaining integrity and transparency through good corporate governance. We operate in partnership with the Talthan First Nations and acknowledge the facilities’ location on the traditional lands of the Talthan First Nations people.

Our team

Our full-time resident staff of over 30 professionals – engineers, coordinators, millwrights, electricians, and heavy machinery operators from across Canada – rotate through our work camp, located onsite. These men and women are responsible for the efficient and effective management, operations, and maintenance of the three hydroelectric facilities. We are proud of our work and the strong partnerships we have formed in our community.
