​The City of Yellowknife is planning to install 1 monitoring wells north west of its active Solid Waste Facility (SWF) which operates off of HWY 4. A map with the location is attached. The work is being completed in order to monitor groundwater for environmental contaminants. Long term monitoring after the wells have been installed is expected to confirm contaminants from the SWF are not migrating off site. The wells will be capped and locked to prevent tampering from the public. The project will include borehole drilling, design and installation of monitoring wells, monitoring well development and surveying and groundwater sampling.
