Thank you very much, Dr. Rivera.
At our hearings in Edmonton, Dr. Mary Griffiths provided the following statement, which you may be aware of:
Although the Alberta Geological Survey has a long history of mapping hydrogeology in the Athabasca Oil Sands region, a great deal more needs to be done....Data are, for example, extremely sparse between Cold Lake and the Ft. McMurray area. Alberta Environment is in partnership with the Alberta Geological Survey to map groundwater resources in the province, but their work is currently focused on the Edmonton-Calgary corridor. The federal government could assist through the Natural Resources Canada Groundwater Mapping Program.
Do you agree with that statement?
