Pic River gets green funding

Pic River is getting eco-friendly washroom facilities for its waterfront.
Featuring solar-powered ventilation and lighting, the washrooms will be installed through one of eight recently announced Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation (NOHFC) projects in the North of Superior region.
“By investing in these projects, we are helping northerners take advantage of new opportunities that will foster economic growth, job creation, green energy and entrepreneurship in our region,” said Michael Gravelle, minister of Northern Development, Mines and Forestry and chairman of the NOHFC.
Pic River will receive $21,110 for the project through NOHFC’s Northern Energy Program.
