Summary: The main objective of the Phase III Environmental Site Assessment is to delineate the hydrocarbon contamination at the site resulting from an overflow of fuel at a vent pipe of an above ground storage tank. Test holes will be excavated with a backhoe around the former spill area in order to collect soil samples. Each sample will be submitted to a Canadian Association for Laboratory Accreditatio...

Summary: The purpose of each Phase I/II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is to determine the current environmental and physical conditions at each site to allow for the potential future development of the appropriate remediation or risk management strategies and costs. This will include the identification and quantification of environmental impacts to all media including soil, sediment, surface water a...

Summary: The purpose of the Supplemental Environmental Site Assessments is to further determine the current environmental and physical conditions at several petroleum hydrocarbon spill sites along the Canol Trail, and address the gaps identified from the 2012 sampling program. Key findings from these select sites will be synthesized to identify the scope and nature of the spills, potential trends regarding...

Summary: 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 a...

Summary: Oil and gas exploration activities took place on Prince Patrick Island in the 1970s, including the drilling of wellsite Panarctic Satellite F-68 at Satellite Bay. These activities resulted in the known abandonment of structures, debris and environmental concerns at Satellite Bay including one large garage and two small trailers; several burn pits and burnt material; a “dilapidated garage” on an a...

Summary: The Phase I Environmental Site Assessment is a "non-intrusive" assessment, means no borehole or test pit will be drilled on the site and no water or soil samples will be collected or laboratory analyses. The majority of the work focus on desktop studies, by reviewing previous drilling reports, geological investigation reports, environmental assessment reports, claim reports, information at the go...
