International oil services company Halliburton is preparing to open an explosives storage facility in Nova Scotia's Hants County next month — a project that is raising concerns for residents and even the municipal warden, who say they're largely in the dark about the plan.
The facility, located at the site of the former barite mine near Walton, will contain explosives to be used in oil and gas exploration.
Abraham Zebian, the warden of the Municipality of the District of West Hants, said he was caught off guard by CBC's questions about the project, as he had little information about it. But he said he does have concerns.
"That would be concerning to any resident, to have that in their backyard," he said. "Disasters ring a bell to me that have happened in Nova Scotia historically. That's the first thing you start thinking about."
The storage site is located in an isolated area about two kilometres down a bumpy dirt and gravel road. The buildings the explosives will be stored in are specially designed to help contain explosions.
