2. BACKGROUND
The subject property is an RCMP owned residential home located
within a residential compound operated by the Aklavik RCMP. It
is House Number G037, with Hansen Road to the east and Tornow
Avenue to the north. The house is situated between the Aklavik
RCMP detachment and another house within the RCMP Housing Unit;
The home is located approximately 143 metres (m) from the
closest water body the Peel Channel of the MacKenzie River,
which is within the MacKenzie Delta. The property is currently
occupied by RCMP staff. In May 2011; a connecting pipe between
the heating oil tank and the house broke, spilling approximately
500 litres (L) of heating oil onto the ground. The south side of
the house is in a topographical low for the region and the
heating oil pooled in the back yard, beneath the deck. The
initial spill response utilized a spill kit including sorbent
cloths and Microsorb® oil absorbent material. During the initial
clean up, the deck was removed and an area where fuel
accumulated was excavated, leaving behind a shallow pit of
approximate dimensions: 1.82 m (north-south) by 2.05 m
(east-west) and approximately 0.2 metres below ground surface
(mBGS).
