CFS Senneterre, initially called RCAF Station Senneterre prior to 1967, was a long-range radar and Ground Control Intercept station, part of the Pinetree Line radar defence network, situated 40 miles (64 km) north of Val-d'Or, Quebec.
Situated atop Mount Bell, east of the town of Senneterre, Quebec, construction started in 1950.
From 1968 to 1973 Senneterre was the backup to CFB North Bay, the regional command post; in the event it was incapacitated by a nuclear strike, Senneterre was designated an Alternative Command Post (ALCOP).
In 1988 the station was deemed no longer necessary as a long-range radar, and closed.
[1] After closure in 1988 some of the facilities were sold to private interests.
