Principal Investigator: Vaartnou, H.
Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: To establish test plots of various species of grass to determine the best types to be used to revegetate sites disturbed by pipeline construction....

Principal Investigator: McLaughlin, Ronald
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: To study the effect linear developments (roads, pipelines and seismic lines) have on the northern ecosystems by: (1) documenting changes to the vegetation and terrain and comparing these areas with undistrubed areas. (2) selecting vegetation sample sites for next year's program. (3) sampling fish, small aquatic organisms ...

Principal Investigator: Bouckhout, Leo W.
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: (1) To determine present and future land and resource usage> (2) To evaluate the probable impact of a pipeline and propose measures to minimize it....

Principal Investigator: Tester, Frank
Licensed Year(s): 1978
Summary: The conducting of a social economic and environmental impact assessment of the proposed Polar Gas pipeline through the Keewatin....

Principal Investigator: Zoltai, S.C.
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To study the vegetation-soil-perma- frost relationships and the potential effect of building a gas pipeline over this type of terrain....

Principal Investigator: Lawrence, M.S.
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To gain further knowledge of fisheries resource sin watersheds transected by the proposed Polar Route(s) north of 60°....

Principal Investigator: Wankiewicz, Anthony
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To study permafrost near Arctic streams at sites near Inuvik and several locations in the Keewatin. This study is to provide baseline information on coupled heat-transfer processes relevant to cold gas pipeline stream crossings. The ground temperature will be monitored at stream cross sections at the different sites....

Principal Investigator: Wankiewicz, A.
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: To study the permafrost near two Arctic streams. This study is to provide baseline and process information on coupled heat transfer processes relevant to cold gas pipeline stream crossings....

Principal Investigator: Davison, D.M.
Licensed Year(s): 1975
Summary: (1) To gather field data in order to assess drainage and erosion control and to evaluate the stability of slopes along the proposed Foothills Pipeline and at key river crossings; (2) To gather subsurface soil and ice information to analyze typical slope conditions for pipe support designs for Foothills Pipeline Limited....
