Sample location reasoning: an accident involving significant damage to the adjacent wetland. Sampling this location as there has been little to no effort to maintain the contaminant. Municipality has been notified and the MOECC. Only after we started posting pix on a social media site did they respond to our inquires and take the necessary measure to contain the spread of pollution.

Picture will be added soon
