I want to point out, in answer to your question, that with respect to contaminated sediments, the water quality agreement has been a tool in addressing them. That is because the 1987 protocol established what are called lake-wide management plans and remedial action plans. Based on advice from the commission, the parties identified 43 of what Mr. Stack called hotspots, and these are areas of concern. In some cases, contaminated sediments are one of the contributing factors that have led to the listing of an area as an area of concern. So under the water quality agreement, there's an obligation for each of these areas of concern to develop what's called a remedial action plan. Depending on whether contaminated sediments are an issue in that particular area of concern, you have to look at the individual or specific remedial action plan to see the strategy that has been adopted to address it.
By the way, we did bring copies, Mr. Chair, of the water quality agreement in English and French, and we are pleased to make them available to members of the committee.
