Canal 9, the local television station covering the canton of Valais, visited the construction site with Project Manager Eric Wuilloud. However, the TV report also covers the history of the reservoir. Canal 9 talked to Gérald Lugon-Moulin, the former manager of the Swiss Federal Railway (SBB) centre in Châtelard. The third subject is the future of hydropower in the canton of Valais with interesting statements by Damien Métrailler, President of the Association of Water Tax-Levying Communes in the canton of Valais.
