Arctic Wastewater Research
Principal Investigator: Challen Urbanic, Jane
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2011 2010 2009
Summary: The objective of this research is to assess the performance of lagoons and wetlands in the treatment of municipal wastewater in Canada's Arctic. A secondary objective is to determine the occurrence of trace contaminants in northern wastewaters. Samples will be taken from the influent (raw sewage) and effluent (treated wastewater) of each wastewater system identified earlier in the application. ...

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...

Sewage Lagoon Discharge Assessment, Tuktoyaktuk, NT
Principal Investigator: Herrington, Joey M
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: The Sewage Discharge Assessment will be carried out to meet the needs of the Hamlet of Tuktoyaktuk's water licensing requirements as issued by the NWT Water Board. The objective of the Sewage Discharge Assessment is to evaluate the potential impacts of sewage discharges on fish and benthos in the receiving environment by comparing reference and effluent exposed communities. Water, sediment and ...

Using Drilling Mud Sumps to Determine How Well Permafrost Contains Contaminants
Principal Investigator: Dyke, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1998 1997
Summary: This project is intended to determine the amount by which fluids disposed of in abandoned oil well drilling mud disposal pits (sumps) have migrated into surrounding frozen ground. The sumps are not presently considered to pose any kind of environmental hazard but they do offer a unique opportunity to determine the effectiveness of permafrost as a containment for waste fluids. The main activity i...

Water Quality of Aklavik Clearing Lake and Associated Wetlands
Principal Investigator: Fehr, Alan
Licensed Year(s): 1995
Summary: The researchers will determine what impact sewage effluent from the Hamlet of Aklavik is having on the water quality and biota downstream. A literature review on the entire Delta will be completed. Interview with people having camps on the Delta and field observations will give an idea of past and present distribution of wood frogs. Water quality samples will be taken and wetland biota describe...
