Construction will consist of a 1732 sq.m. concrete foundation floor, 1,260 sq.m. first floor, 800 sq.m second floor, and 490 sq.m. third floor.  The location will be on Whitecap Dakota Nation on the SE 1/4 of Section 6 - Township 34 - Range 5 - W3M. In addition to at new building, project will involve extending and upgrading an existing access road, extension of 200 mm sewer and 150 mm water mains, surface asphalt parking lots for approximately 70 facility workers, electrical supply and natural gas mains.
