Action Plan

The mercury clean up project for hydrometric stations in Canada has been undertaken to contain and remove any elemental mercury that may have been spilled in and around hydrometric gauging sites. Through this program we will assess the stations for potential mercury contamination and develop a remedial plan to remove any contamination identified from the workplace and the environment and minimize EC's potential liabilities at the affected sites.
