There are very few monitoring stations. We test the water that we take out of waterways for municipal and community use. The other monitoring is done by the federal government.
The Mackenzie River Basin Board, as well, has tried to do some assessments of the aquatic ecosystems, and they've done reports, but with a budget of a quarter of a million dollars, the majority of which goes to the three staff, it's very difficult to do that kind of work. Senator Banks pointed out in his report that there has been a tremendous diminishment in federal resources to the appropriate departments in the federal government that do this work, and that if you looked at the shelf of research that's there for monitoring of surface water and/or groundwater, you would see enormous gaps; it's either outdated or non-existent.
