Fish barriers within Haggart Creek have now been removed
Fish barriers within Haggart Creek have now been removedApparently the fish are doing what fish do.
"Current water conditions within Haggart Creek are supportive of fish passage and the immediate risk to aquatic life within Haggart Creek has decreased. As a result, the fish barriers within Haggart Creek have now been removed to allow Arctic grayling in the upper Haggart watershed to resume their natural migration patterns."
"To date, we have not observed any exceedances of Haggart Creek water quality objectives for metals or other parameters as a result of the heap leach failure. Additional monitoring is underway to further investigate the observed changes in Haggart Creek. Water levels in nearby creeks are above average for this time of year and dilution is currently high as a result."
Was the pollution potential overrated?
