Determination of PBDEs in Canadian North Landfill Leachate and Soils
Principal Investigator: Danon-Schaffer, Monica N
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: Given the threats of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and their widespread appearance in marine mammals and far northern communities, identifying the sources of these compounds and of various PBDE congeners in air, water and soil are of utmost importance. Potential ecological and human health risks, and increasing concentrations of PBDEs in the environment require early implementation of con...

Inuvik Dumpsite Fire
Principal Investigator: Katz, Sharon
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: This project aims to address a local concern about the release of contaminants resulting from an enduring fire at the Inuvik dumpsite by complementing the monitoring of Inuvik’s dumpsite for non-standard contaminants, and by reaffirming the drainage pathways from the dumpsite. Water samples (40-80 l) will be collected from two streams that clear the melt water from the dumpsite area, and the t...

Using Drilling Mud Sumps to Determine how well Permafrost Contains Contaminants
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1998 1997
Summary: Field work this year will be devoted to 1) determining the maximum extent of potassium chloride migration from sumps examined in 1997, 2) examine the Mallik L-38 sump constructed in 1972 as one of the oldest sumps in the Delta, 3) examine the sumps in Parsons Lake area where topographic relief has added the potential for salt migration due to groundwater flow. Sumps along Kumak Channel, near the m...

Environmental Assessment of the Hamlet of Tuktoyaktuk Solid Waste Disposal Area, Saw Mill Bay and Cape Parry, and cleanup of a former DEW Line site, BAR-3 Tuktoyaktuk.
Principal Investigator: Reimer, Ken
Licensed Year(s): 1996
Summary: The Environmental Science Group (ESG) has been requested by DND and NWSO to conduct environmental investigations of former DEW Line sites and other military bases in the NWT. Personnel will collect soil, plant, water, paint chips and insulating material for analysis of potential contaminants....

Phase II - Hazardous Wastes
Principal Investigator: Heinke, G.W.
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1989
Summary: In co-operation with the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs, the researcher will conduct a random sampling of garbage generated in the selected communities to establish their composition. A questionnaire will be used to gather a hazardous waste inventory. A detailed plan will be for the design and cost estimate of a co-disposal facility will be undertaken....
