2008
Summary:
This license has been issued for the scientific research application #889.
The goal of this research is to determine the environmental impacts present at the BAR-C – Tununuk site and to develop estimates of the various waste components (hydrocarbon and metal/PCB impacted soils, non-hazardous materials, and hazardous materials). INAC is focused on accelerating the remediation of contaminated si...

Summary:
This study is designed to fill gaps in Environment Canada’s understanding of the aquatic environment potentially impacted by various aspects of the Mackenzie Gas Project (MGP). Potential stressors including: increased erosion, nutrient releases from sewage discharges, other chemical releases, water withdrawals, impacts of barge traffic, increased atmospheric emissions, etc. The focus will be on th...
Principal Investigator:Danon-Schaffer, Monica N Licensed Year(s):

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...

2005 Summary:
Since the 1970s, the oil and gas industry has drilled at least nineteen exploratory wells in the Kendall Island Bird Sanctuary. Observations at associated drilling mud-sumps have been made; however, there remains a paucity of field data describing site conditions. It is also appreciated that construction of the proposed Mackenzie Valley pipeline will stimulate the development of Niglintgak and Tag...

2005 Summary:
The research team will collect data to assess environmental conditions at well sites and sumps abandoned during the 1970s and 1980s, and in nearby undisturbed terrain in the Kendall Island Bird Sanctuary (KIBS). Study site locations include: Taglu D-43, Taglu H-54, Taglu C-42, Niglintgak B-19, Kumak K-16, Kumak E-58 and Kumak J-06. Permafrost investigations will take place in the surrounding terr...

Summary:
Research program on the fish, plankton and benthic communities. Potential effects of the drilling program on benthos include effects of chemical contaminants from drilling fluid wastes on the benthic community and hence the food web, and loss/change in b...
