BPA Public Notice
In line
with the Bui Power Authority Act 2007 (ACT 740), extensive
lands around the Bui gorge where the Bui Hydroelectric dam
is being constructed have been acquired by Government by
Executive Instrument 70 (E.I.70) of August 2008.
These
lands are found in the Bole district in the Northern Region
and the Tain district in the Brong Ahafo Region. By E.I. 70
all these lands acquired by the Government have been vested
in the Bui Power Authority. Demarcation of the boundaries of
the acquired land is ongoing. Notifications have already
been sent to the land owners with interest in the acquired
areas for them to submit claims for compensation.
The Bui
Power Authority therefore advises the general public, chiefs
and land owners to desist from interfering in any way with
the said lands. Especially, the general public, companies
and enterprises are cautioned from paying for any of these
lands since any such purported purchase or acquisition would
be null and void. |
