Summary: The objective of this program is to determine the environmental and physical conditions at nine sites on Gordon Lake. 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. In addition, samples of biota (including vegetation, fish, benthic invertebrates) m...

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 objective of this research project is to conduct Phase II Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) at six locations located within the Northwest Territories (NT). The purpose of field investigations at Caribou Point, Crestaurum Mine, Sun-Rose Claim Group, Thompson-Lundmark Mine, Wrigley Point, and Dome Lake is to determine the current environmental and physical conditions at each site and to red...

Summary: The objective of this study is to complete comprehensive site investigations at each location (10 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 f...

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: Hadley, Katherine
Licensed Year(s): 2009
Summary: The purpose of the Phase II ESAs is to further determine the current environmental and physical conditions at 10 sites along the Canol Trail and to reduce data gaps and allow development of the appropriate remediation strategies and costs. This will include the identification and quantification of environmental impacts to soil, sediment, surface water and groundwater, as well as the identificatio...

Principal Investigator: Barnette, Laura M
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: The objective of the study is to: determine the spatial extent of sediments enriched by tailings solids; characterize the physical and geochemical characteristics of contaminated sediments in Baker Creek; determine to what extent arsenic and other elements of concern in these materials can be remobilized into the water column. Given the shallow water depth in Baker Creek, the majority of sedime...
