Selected Reports

2009 Environmental Baseline Studies at CFB Cold Lake, CFB Gander, CFB Comox, CFB Bagotville, and CFB Winnipeg. Inspected 38 sites, covering 8 provinces and 1700 buildings, for compliance with DND, Federal, Provincial and Municipal environmental regulations. Results were used to identify resource requirements and as a pre-inspection for ISO 14001 audits.
2009 Monitoring Well Investigation at 17 Wing Cold Lake, Inspected 190 wells to determine their condition (internal and external). The information was used to help plan maintenance, replacement and closure activities.
2009 Environmental Risk Assessment of Small Arms Ranges at Land Force Bases. Categorized the risk associated with the operations of all army small-arms firing ranges across Canada. Information was used to prioritize site assessment activities and resource allocation.
2009 Environmental Impact and Operational Investigation into Glycol Practices at Canadian Forces Wings. Identified mitigation methods to reduce glycol usage through improved operational, maintenance, management and design practices.
2009 Environmental Impact and Operational Investigation into Washwater Practices at Canadian Forces Wings. Identified mitigation methods to reduce airplane washwater impact through improved operational, maintenance, management and design practices.
2009 Remediation of Discharged Fire-Fighting Foam at Aircraft Hangars. Characterized the waste generated during a fire event or accidental discharge of fire fighting foam. Performed an options analysis that highlighted the key treatment technologies that could be combined to develop a treatment prototype.
