The objective of this presentation is to illustrate the associations with past activities that may be made with historical and archaeological artifacts recovered during remediation. Techniques for collection and the treatment of artifacts recovered during seabed remediation are reviewed, as well as how this work addresses concerns of risk management and indigenous engagement for the project.
Development of a Prioritization Matrix for Assessing the Potential for Sediment Contamination at Sites in the Trent Severn Waterway and Rideau Canal
Paul Bandler, BluMetric Environmental
The objective of this presentation is to demonstrate the development of a screening tool to prioritize the potential environmental and human health risks of sediment impacts at water infrastructure site. This desktop assessment tool will reduce the level of effort and associated cost of on-site sediment investigations.

The objective of this presentation is to demonstrate how a food chain model was effectively used to support remedial planning within Victoria Harbour, BC. We will describe the refinement of the model and its application during development of the options evaluation and remedial action plan to quantify the risk reductions achievable under different remedial scenarios.
