The Environmental Assessment Process of Canadian ‘Frontier’ Oil and Gas
chercheur principal: Fraser, Gail S
Année(s) de permis: 2012
Résumé: The research will provide 1) a systematic pan-Canadian analysis and critique of problematic environmental assessment trends (for example, the lack of publicly available environmental data, inconsistent environmental effects monitoring programs, difficulties addressing cumulative effects, and ineffective public consultation), and 2) practical policy solutions to these trends in the form of "best pr...


The cumulative impacts of rapid environmental change in the northwestern NWT: Investigating the impacts of mega-slump disturbances on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems in the lower Peel watershed, NW
chercheur principal: Lacelle, Denis
Année(s) de permis: 2013 2012
Résumé: This is a multidisciplinary project involving communities, governments and academic researchers. The goals are to : 1) inventory and track broad scale changes in landscape disturbances; 2) determine the impacts of natural and anthropogenic disturbances on the physical and chemical characteristics and ecology of streams and rivers; 3) determine disturbance thresholds relevant to the health of strea...

Résumé: To revisit fixed sample stations at near-field, mid-field and far-field sites over the course of a year in an effort to determine any seasonal variation that may exist and confirm impact predictions. The study will encompass the following water based parameters: water quality, zooplankton & phytoplankton biomass and taxonomy, benthic invertebrate analysis and sediment chemistry. This program also ...


Pine Point Project (N-204)
chercheur principal: Landry, Francois
Année(s) de permis: 2012 2011
Résumé: The objective of the proposed study is to collect baseline data to characterize the environmental (physical and biological) setting in the proposed project area which is located in proximity to the former Pine Point Mine. Specifically, data will be collected to characterize the following environmental components: air quality, noise, hydrology, hydrogeology, geochemistry, aquatic resources, fish an...


Exfiltration Fence Habitat Assessment
chercheur principal: Wilcockson, John B
Année(s) de permis: 2011
Résumé: The objective of this research project is to determine the presence or absence of fish species as part of a habitat assessment of the proposed location for an exfiltration trench (effluent diffuser). Collected fish will be identified, weighted and measured. Electrofishing would be conducted along the banks of a 200m stretch of Prairie Creek, at the Prairie Creek mine site. Electro fishing would...


Tuk Base Demolition Supplementary Sampling
chercheur principal: Bird, Sam P
Année(s) de permis: 2011
Résumé: The objective of this research project is to collect supplementary soil and water samples to further delineate areas of the site affected by hydrocarbons, metals and salinity and to assess area for possible impacts where infrastructure has been removed. Soil samples will be collected with hand tools and placed in ziplock bags to roughly measure hydrocarbons while in the field and into glass ja...
