  1. WHATI Water LicenceSurveillance Network Program (SNP)

  2. 1. Be Safe Vaccinations -recommended b) Gloves– wear gloves during sampling, discard gloves inside cooler. • Hepatitis A&B • Tetanus d) Field Gear c) Hand Sanitizer– use after each sample

  3. 2. Be PreparedPick a date each month to collect samples a) Order Bottles b) Lab Analysis • Contact Taiga Lab to arrange for analysis • After Hours: 867-444-8378 • from Taiga Lab: • 867-669-2788 • Order at least 3 days in advance (usebottle order form) c) Bottle Transport • Arrange with Air Tindi and Yellowknife courier/taxi to deliver samples and field sheet to Taiga Lab the SAME DAY.

  4. 3. Know the Locations • SNP 002-1: Raw water from community well (keep records of monthly quantity used) • SNP 002-2: Sewage effluent discharged from detention pond #3 (1 monthly sample during periods of flow) • SNP 002-3: Lac La Martre River at outflow of the marsh (1 monthly sample during periods of flow) • SNP 002-4: Runoff from domestic solid waste disposal site (1 monthly sample if water is present) • SNP 002-5: Runoff from bulk solid waste disposal site • (1 monthly sample if water is present)

  5. SNP 002-2: Sewage effluent discharged from detention pond #3. If sewage is not present at pond #3, sample at location furthest from truck dump where there is sewage present. 1 monthly sample during periods of flow pH TSS, Ammonia Fecal Coliforms BOD Mercury Oil & Grease

  6. SNP 002-3: Lac La Martre River at outflow of the marsh pH TSS, Ammonia Fecal Coliforms BOD Mercury Oil & Grease 1 monthly sample during periods of flow) EXAMPLE PHOTO

  7. 1 monthly sample if water is present SNP 002-4: Runoff from domestic solid waste disposal site pH TSS Total Metals, Mercury

  8. 1 monthly sample if water is present SNP 002-5: Runoff from bulk solid waste disposal site pH TSS Total Metals, Mercury

  9. 4. Know the Procedures • Rinse X 3 • Fill to top 3 X

  10. 4. Know the Procedures • Sample cleanest location first • At each SNP location: • Wear gloves • Write SNP number and date and time on each bottle (before collecting sample) • Collect samples following procedures for each color & type of bottle (on next pages) • Place used bottles in cooler and keep unused bottles in separate bag (use ice pack to keep bottles cold but not frozen). • Discard gloves in cooler • Use hand sanitizer

  11. 4. Know the Procedures • Do Not Rinse • Fill to top • Record the time

  12. Send to Taiga Lab, Yellowknife for analysis Sampling & Analysis Taiga Lab will send you your results back in 14 days.

  13. 5. HOW TO REPORT AND STORE DATA • When results are received from Taiga Lab: • Record results in spreadsheet results template (provided by WLWB) • Annual Report – due March 31 each year • Fill out template for annual reporting (provided by WLWB), including reporting of all SNP results
