The territorial government will be presenting the results of the Legacy Arsenic Health and Human Risk Assessment on Thursday, June 17.
The project examined the risk of arsenic exposure in areas surrounding the sites of Giant and Con mine, outside of the immediate remediation zone.
The research focused on traditional land use areas, including lakes, within a 25-kilometre radius.
“A virtual public information session will share the results and what they mean for people wanting to enjoy the land and water, including fishing, foraging and hunting,” reads a government notice.
Researchers will be taking questions following a presentation.
CKLB will be carrying the presentation live and streaming to our Facebook page, starting at 5:30 p.m.
