Principal Investigator: Brar, Harjot
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5580. The program is intended to assess the integrity of drilling waste sumps and investigate any other identified areas of potential environmental concern (APECs) that might exist at a site. The data will be used to develop a long-term management strategy for environmental liabilities associated with former drilling sites ...

Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5217. The objective of the fieldwork is to collect geotechnical and geophysical data to further advance the Inuvialuit Energy Security Project (IESP). The engineering design for the IESP Energy Facility has advanced to the point of identifying two preferred locations for the Energy Facility. Both locations are within the pr...

Principal Investigator: Lane, Larry S
Licensed Year(s): 2001
Summary: The research team proposes three activities. Geological mapping at a 1:50,000 scale, carried out by the Geological Survey of Canada, will provide an updated and detailed geological map of the Aklavik Range, which was previously mapped at reconnaissance scale in the 1960's and 70's. Stratigraphic studies will consist of detailed measurement and description of specific rock units of Jurassic and Cr...
