Book Description
This study documents the historical use, transportation, and disposal of pesticides, PCBs, mercury, and lead in Yukon Territory from 1910-80, with particular emphasis on 1940-70. The transportation of heavy ores was studied from the perspective of potential contamination. Research was carried out into the current status of ownership and other relevant information concerning waste sites on inventory. Previously undocumented sites of potential contamination were also targeted.
