The Nuclear Waste Management Organization has contracted Geofirma Engineering Ltd, to drill bore holes in South Bruce where a nuclear waste disposal site might be located.
“This work is part of our site assessment program, as we seek to further build our understanding of the geosphere at the potential repository site,” the organization said.
“Geofirma will be contacting area businesses to source needed supplies and materials for the upcoming field program. Site preparation work, followed by borehole drilling, coring and testing, is expected to begin this fall.”
Geofirma is a Canadian company owned by its employees.
