Alberta Environment and Protected Areas (EPA) has a new easy to use online geospatial tool that displays information about contaminated sites regulated by EPA such as gas stations, drycleaners and wood-processing facilities. Visit the new Environmental Records Viewer under the title Long Term Management (LTM).
The Environmental Records Viewer Long Term Management module:
- Provides a map interface to search and locate sites in an area, and a selection tool to view detailed information about sites that meet the entered criteria. Through this tool, users can access all publicly available documents, download or export individual or multiple records, and export site-related attributes for multiple or single sites.
- Includes sites that have undergone environmental assessments and were reported to the EPA as unauthorized releases requiring long-term remedial measures. It also includes sites where assessments were conducted to evaluate soil and groundwater quality. Note: The presence of an environmental site assessment in the viewer does not necessarily indicate that the site is, or ever was, contaminated.
- Replaces the Environmental Site Assessment Repository (ESAR) for EPA regulated contaminated sites. Information previously available in ESAR, such as reclamation certificates and historic AER regulated contaminated sites, will continue to be accessible through information requests submitted to epa-regulatory-records-intake@gov.ab.ca, until an alternative is implemented.
