Objective(s): To delineate the horizontal and vertical extent of uranium contaminated soil at sites located along the Great Bear River portion of the Northwest Transportation Route (NTR); and to assist in the development of future remediation plans for this segment of the NTR.
Project Description: The assessment is designed to delineate the horizontal and vertical extent of uranium contaminated soil at sites located along the Great Bear River portion of the Northwest Transportation Route (NTR). The soil quality and quantity information gathered during this assessment is required to assist in the development of future remediation plans for this segment of the NTR. The proposed tasks are as follows: • Project planning including: Development of a detailed project execution plan; acquisition of a research licence; and development of a project safety plan. • Field program including: Establishing a base camp at Bennett Field; soil sampling using hand-operated sampling equipment; soil analytical testing program including arsenic, uranium and Ra226; sampling to a maximum depth of 2 m near surface computer assisted radiological survey (CARS) at all sites known to exhibit elevated gamma radiation; reconnaissance...
