Understanding of distribution and sources of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in the north and east of Great Slave Lake and coastal regions
Principal Investigator: Chen, Bing
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5820. The proposed project will evaluate the temporal and spatial distribution of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE) in the water and sediment of Great Slave Lake and surrounding communities, landfills, drinking water, and industries to identify the source of PBDEs. The concentration and distribution of PBDEs will b...


Pine Point Railbed supplementary sampling ESA
Principal Investigator: Brown, Joanna
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5626. "The objective of the study is to determine environmental conditions (in particular metal concentrations) in areas of the railbed in close proximity to major water crossings and to them to sit specific target levels defined in the HHERA. The proposed field program will focus on collecting information that is consider...

Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022 2017 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5669. This research study is continuing to investigate whether contaminant (mercury, other metals, persistent organic contaminants) levels are changing in fish in the Northwest Territories with a focus on Great Slave Lake, which the research team has been studying since the early 1990s. The team plans to arrange collection...


Hydrogeological investigation of the treatment performance of subsurface wastewater treatment systems in the NWT
Principal Investigator: Jamieson, Rob
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5413. The overall objective of this study is improved understanding of wastewater effluent transport within permafrost environments in the NWT. The proposed study aims to answer the following questions: 1) What is the potential for contamination of groundwater and receiving waters through active layer transport of effluent...


Further Examination of the Bio- Magnification of Mercury within Fish Species and watersheds of the Deh Cho and Their Varying Levels Among Lakes
Principal Investigator: Low, Mike
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2021 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5348. The objectives of this research project are: 1) to determine why fish mercury levels vary among lakes in the Dehcho region; 2) to identify best predictors of fish mercury levels; 3) to determine with fish have the lowest levels of mercury and the highest levels of nutrients; and, 4) to collect data on parameters that ...


Bull trout eDNA and microplastic collection
Principal Investigator: Sampson, Christie
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5235. The proposed research aims to quantify the spread of microplastics in freshwater aquatic food webs in the Yukon and Northwest Territory, and understand potential impacts to aquatic species. The research team also are collecting eDNA to establish the current range of Bull Trout in northern Canada. The project aims t...
