Many people are wondering how a deal that would see the sale of a part of Atomic Energy of Canada Limited to a Montreal-based engineering firm might impact the Point Lepreau refurbishment.
An NB Power spokesperson tells CHSJ News it's too soon to say anything where the deal is not yet finalized.
Energy Minister Craig Leonard told us last week that negotiations are going well to have AECL cover the cost overruns for the Lepreau refurbishment which is 3 years behind schedule and more than 1 billion dollars over budget.
