Norman Wells Store Owner Says Timing Is Tight, but He'll Try to Get Goods on 2nd Barge to the Sahtu

SAHTU REGION, NORTHWEST TERRITORIES, JUN 28 – Low water levels in the Mackenzie River have forced Marine Transportation Services to limit cargo deliveries to a four-day window, impacting supply chains for Sahtu communities, officials said.

Summary by CBC News
The N.W.T. government is preparing to send a second barge up the Mackenzie River to the Sahtu region in the next few weeks. The barge, going to Tulita, Norman Wells and Fort Good Hope, was announced just days after the territory said the first barge of the season would be sailing.
