    Alberta Infrastructure Response to Questions at the Standing Committee on Public Accounts, June 2, 2020 1. Question from Mr. Thomas Dang (NDP), MLA for Edmonton-South Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) “I understand that a number of the projects were continued and approved under the ICIP, but a number of projects, such as the Lethbridge performing arts centre, didn’t move forward in the process. Could you get us a list of those projects and how many dollars didn’t move forward?” (Page PA-217) Deputy Minister’s Response: “We can provide you with the list of the complete 700 applications and then the list that did get approved.” Supplemental Response: As part of Budget 2020, the Province has endorsed more than 70 projects in more than 30 constituencies to move forward to the federal application stage. Applicants with endorsed projects are working with the Province to fulfill the federal application requirements. Under the terms of the Integrated Bilateral Agreements, project announcements can only be made jointly once federal approval is received. 13 projects were previously approved for $2.7 billion in ICIP funding (see Attachment 1 – ICIP Federally Approved Projects): 1. Alberta Capital Region Wastewater Commission – Waste Gas Burner Facility 2. Ben Calf Robe School Building Upgrades (Edmonton) 3. Green Line LRT (Calgary) 4.
