Featured Project
Lac Brochet Environmental Remediation & Alternative Energy
Location
Lac Brochet, MB
Key Services
- Groundwater Cutoff Walls
- In-situ and Ex-situ Remediation
- Chemical Injection and Water Treatment
Description
This project involved the environmental remediation of two diesel-contaminated sites in a remote First Nation community in Manitoba. Part of a larger Alternative Energy project aimed at reducing and eventually eliminating dependence on diesel fuel as a primary heating/power source in this northern isolated community.
Key Challenges
Key Solutions
- Installation of subsurface groundwater cut-off wall and water treatment system at the lakeside.
- Completion of a 3 year chemical oxidant injection program.
- Management of in-situ and ex-situ remediation by chemical injection of two areas with petroleum hydrocarbon-impacted soil and groundwater.
- Decommission and remove/relocate all above and underground infrastructure associated with the School Tank farm site.
- Excavation and stockpiling of hydrocarbon-impacted soil at the School and Former Band and constructing an ex-situ land treatment area (LTA).
