Summary
The Department of Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) is seeking services to implement phytoremediation at the Eureka High Arctic Weather Station (HAWS) on Ellesmere Island, Nunavut. The project aims to remediate soil areas impacted with petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs) that cannot be excavated due to proximity to infrastructure and embankment stability concerns. Phytoremediation offers a low-carbon, green alternative to conventional heavy machinery-based remediation, with minimal operational and maintenance requirements. The approach will be enhanced with Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) seed treatments to improve plant establishment and acceleration in the high Arctic's challenging environment.
