- The purpose of the Environmental Assessment (EA) was to benchmark the soil and groundwater contamination status of the site prior to entry and/or capital investment.
- Samples were collected for onsite and laboratory analyses that covered soil and lithology, and groundwater description and quality.
- The EA also entailed investigating contaminant transport and natural attenuation.
- Based on a Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) study, the EA provided an objective technical evaluation of the potential human health risks of the proposed project.
