  • Haines Rail Access Report
    HAINES RAIL ACCESS REPORT APRIL 2014 April 18, 2014 HAINES RAIL ACCESS REPORT Prepared for: The Borough of Haines and The State of Alaska Prepared By: ALCAN RaiLink Inc. Operating as PROLOG Canada Inc. HAINES RAIL ACCESS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report provides a business case assessment for rail access to tidewater at Haines, Alaska for Yukon mineral exports, and to bridge Alaska Railroad traffic from the south. Haines, Alaska is in a regionally unique position of having a well protected, deep water port with substantial back-up lands available to support high volume rail operations that may be required to fully develop Yukon resources. In turn Yukon mineral resources are the principal traffic source available for a Haines railway project. As summarized in the following chart, this report has updated the full resource development potential, as well as Alaska Railroad bridge traffic, that would support, and be supported by, Haines Rail Access over a 30 year investment life-cycle. Potential Haines Rail Access traffic peaks at over 6 million tons/year excluding Crest Iron Ore traffic, which is 28 million tons/year. Haines Rail Access Traffic Forecast 7,000,000 Min (Total Producing) 6,000,000 Near (Producing+Advancing) 5,000,000 Mid (Producing+Advancing 4,000,000 +Probable) 3,000,000 Max (Prod.+Adv.+Prob.
