1 PART II Aboriginal Traditional Knowledge Manitoba Hydro recognizes the unique relationship Aboriginal communities have with their areas of use and is appreciative to all the communities who took time to share information about their history and culture as well as their valued knowledge and perspectives with regards to the Bipole III study area and Project. The ATK that has been shared assisted Manitoba Hydro in: developing a greater understanding of the study area; identifying potential Project effects; planning and designing the Project; developing potential mitigation measures, some of which can be found throughout this document.
