Summary: The objective of the proposed studies to be conducted at Courageous Lake is to collect baseline data to characterize the environmental (physical and biological) setting in the proposed project area. Specifically, data will be collected to characterize the following environmental components: meteorology, wind resources, air quality, noise, hydrology, bathymetry, hydrogeology, aquatic resources, fis...

Principal Investigator: Zawacky, Summer R
Licensed Year(s): 2010
Summary: The objective of this study is to complete detailed site investigations at each location (5 in total) to determine environmental and physical conditions. This will include the identification and quantification of environmental impacts in soil, sediment, surface water and groundwater, and the identification of any hazardous or non-hazardous materials left on site. Columbia personnel will follo...

Principal Investigator: Ziervogel, Herb
Licensed Year(s): 2010
Summary: The objectives of this project are to conduct environmental site assessments at the five sites to identify the extent of various contaminations in the soil, water and sediments. A remediation action plan will be prepared for future cleanup at the sites. The field team will use shovel and hand auger to collect limited soil and waste rock samples for lab testing. The lab testing will focus on ...

Summary: The objective of this study is to conduct a detailed site investigation of the Blanchet Island Mine to further determine current environmental and physical conditions. This will include the identification and quantification of environmental impacts in soil, sediment, surface water and groundwater, and the delineation of contamination from any hazardous or non-hazardous materials left on site. ...

Principal Investigator: Gal, Leonard
Licensed Year(s): 2003
Summary: The objective of the fieldwork is to further assess the non-renewable resource potential of the Edehzhie area, as a follow-up to Phase I work which was a review of existing data. This assessment is being carried out as part of the Northwest Territories P...

Principal Investigator: Kalich, Laura
Licensed Year(s): 1996
Summary: The work will include seven aspects of research. Water quality will be done through a number of sampling locations at different times of the year. A hydrology study will measure high water discharge and stage measurements at seven streams in the vicinity of the proposed all-weather road. Bathymetric surveys will conducted on lex lake and six smaller un-named lakes in the vicinity of the propos...
