Randle Reef Remediation Project News

On March 9th, the Minister of Environment and Climate Change, the Honourable Steven Guilbeault, the Ontario Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, the Honourable David Piccini, and the Deputy Mayor of Hamilton, Jason Farr, announced the successful completion of Stage 2 of the Randle Reef Remediation Project. A project site located in the southwest corner of Hamilton Harbour that covers approximately sixty hectares that was identified as an Area of Concern within the Great Lakes. This was a significant remediation project that has resulted in the removal of over a century of contamination (an amount that is enough to fill a hockey rink nearly three times over) from Hamilton Harbour. Milestone is proud to have been involved in this project that is a shining example of collaboration and teamwork in remediation.
