Potential effects on groundwater regime and groundwater quality resources
Assessed Values
- Groundwater regime
- Groundwater quality and quantity
Assessment Methods
- Review of background information, environmental setting and characteristics, including existing groundwater use (i.e., wells)
- Long-terms groundwater monitoring program
- Pumping tests on selected monitoring wells
- Measurement of marine tidal fluctuation in Howe Sound and their effects on groundwater levels
- Three-dimensional numerical hydrogeological modelling based on baseline study data
- Model groundwater conditions to predict and characterize potential changes and potential groundwater-surface water interactions
- Model pathways and travel times of geochemical sources
