Objectif(s): Ojectives of this workplan are as follows: 1. To undertake an environmental baseline program focused on collecting the necessary environmental and socio-economic information for the Diavik Project in support of the assessment and mitigation of environmental effects and reclamation planning. 2. To collect and prepare environmental and socio-economic information in a manner which would be defensible in professional and public forums, and that satisfies various government regulatory agencies.
Description du projet: Methods of data collection will include water quality and bottom sampling in Lac de Gras and Lac du Sauvage; automatic and manual water level recordings; bathometric work; automatic weather stations and the monitoring of air-borne particles and visibility; continuation of baseline studies of soils and terrain, and vegetation; fish population, habitat, health, and spawning habits studies; baseline wildlife data collection; heritage resources studies; and traditional knowledge programs.
