  • In partnership with Surespan, we delivered the structural design, fabrication, and installation of nine permanent forestry-style bridge structures for the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission (PRGT) project.

    The bridges included:

    7 All-steel portable bridges

    2 Steel girder bridges

    8 Bridges on spread footings and towers

    1 Bridge on a lock block substructure

  • In partnership with Surespan, we supplied and installed 10 steel bridge structures to support access for the KSM Project along Treaty Creek Road.

    Work involved excavation, spread footing and tower installation, placement of geotextile and riprap, precast concrete ballast walls, and installation of modular timber deck panels with geo-fabric containment and wear decking.

  • In partnership with Surespan and Lemare we installed over 500 linear meters of sheet pile shoring to support dewatered excavation for a fish habitat offset pond. Sheet piles were driven into challenging glacial till and cobble using multiple techniques, then fully extracted and demobilized upon project completion, supporting environmental sustainability in the region.

  • Launched in July 2021 and located near Stewart, BC with Dexterra Horizon North, the 168-bed camp featured private central rooms, a kitchen and dining hall, a gym, and a recreation room, ensuring a comfortable and functional living environment for remote workers. The scope of services extended beyond accommodation to include equipment supply, catering, food procurement, housekeeping, janitorial services, and camp management. Additional support infrastructure, such as office trailers and lavatories, was also provided to meet the operational needs of the mine site. 

    This project exemplified Boney Creek’s ability to contribute to major industrial developments while prioritizing quality, responsiveness, and long-term client support. The partnership with Dexterra not only provided critical housing and logistical solutions but also reinforced Boney Creek’s growing reputation as a reliable Indigenous development partner in the resource sector.

  • Lemare’s 2024 PRGT Road Upgrades project involved upgrading 18 km of resource roads, quarry development, and bridge installation in a 50-day construction window. Lemare’s scope included blasting and hauling 67,000m³ of aggregate from multiple quarries to support road improvements, all while working near fish-bearing streams and sensitive environmental features. The project was completed on time with zero safety or environmental incidents, maintaining a minimum of 30% local and Indigenous workforce. Lemare’s strong relationship with the Nisga’a Nation and reputation for efficient execution were key factors in meeting the project’s “Substantial Started” designation.

  • Boney Creek Development commissioned a labour market study to assess the current and future workforce capacity across the Nass Region, with a focus on sectors such as pipeline construction, mining, renewable energy, and housing. This included a desktop review, interviews with local business owners and employees, and a community-wide survey with incentives like a drone and a $250 gift card to encourage participation.

    The study revealed both strengths in the local labour pool and critical gaps in skills and training needed to meet upcoming project demands. It also provided detailed wage benchmarks, growth forecasts, and industry-specific talent needs. With over 40 housing units recently built in Laxgalts’ap and major projects like Ksi Lisims LNG on the horizon, this research will guide Boney Creek’s efforts to create training pathways, expand employment opportunities, and maximize local economic benefits.

  • In partnership with the Laxgalts’ap Village Government, Massif Energy, and Associating Engineering Ltd., Boney Creek Development supported the creation of a Climate Resilience Plan for the Village of Laxgalts’ap. Funded through the First Nation Adapt program, this initiative assessed climate vulnerabilities and developed a roadmap for long-term community resilience.

    Highlights:

    • Identified top climate risks, including extreme heat, river ice changes, and low water flow

    • Developed a Community Emergency Response and Evacuation Plan

    • Proposed upgrades to water infrastructure and flood protection systems

    • Initiated feasibility studies for solar power, large scale farming, and local fish hatchery

    • Launched home and community heat pump programs to address rising temperatures

  • Anyox Hydro is a flagship clean energy project by Boney Creek Development, focused on repurposing a historic dam site within Nisga’a Traditional Territory. Originally developed for mining, the site is now being transformed into a hydroelectric storage facility to support regional clean energy needs.

    After completing a feasibility review and submitting a bid to BC Hydro’s 2024 Call for Power, Boney Creek continues to refine the project and pursue offtake agreements with BC Hydro and local industry. The project is part of a broader hydro complex, including Kitsault, Homestake, and Trout Creek, aimed at powering critical mineral development and sustainable growth on the North Coast.

  • Boney Creek Development completed a comprehensive biomass resource analysis in the Nass region, identifying over 23 million cubic meters of harvestable biomass, including 14 million cubic meters of low-value waste material such as tops, branches, and pulpwood. With an annual allowable cut of 130,000 cubic meters, this presents a significant opportunity to value-add the region’s historic logging industry by converting waste biomass into usable energy and sustainable products.

    This project explores two key pathways:

    1) Bioenergy Production

    Waste biomass can be burned to produce heat and electricity. Heat can supply community buildings, greenhouses, and other infrastructure, while electricity can be sold to BC Hydro, supporting local energy sovereignty. A pre-feasibility analysis for this pathway is currently in progress.

    2) Biochar Conversion

    An alternative use involves converting wood waste into biochar, a carbon-rich material that locks in carbon (generating carbon credits) and can be used to improve soil health or purify water. Boney Creek has completed an initial carbon credit assessment, which showed a strong business case. Further testing and modeling are now underway, with funding opportunities being pursued.

    This project also has the potential to repurpose wood waste from industrial clearing activities, such as powerline and pipeline development. The Laxgalts’ap log sort yard is being considered as a potential site for the bioenergy or biochar facility.

  • As part of the sustainable energy resource analysis, Boney Creek identified wind as a promising opportunity for clear energy development in the region. In partnership with the Village of Gingolx and in collaboration with Gitlaxt’aamiks and Gitwinksihlkw, Boney Creek has begun advancing a wind project aimed at aligning with BC Hydro’s 2025 Call for Power. A smaller-scale wind initiative is also being explored closer to the Village. These early-stage investigations are part of Boney Creek’s broader commitment to Indigenous-led, community-informed clean energy development.
