Subject: Spill and emergency contingency plan for Cumberland FuelStorage
at Baker Lake

Helen Yeh of Nunavut Environment provided a copy of the spill contingencies for the tug and fuel storage near the community of Baker Lake, Nunavut which provided by NTCL to you. 

A copy of your spill contingency plan should also have been provide
to:
1.  the Nunavut Water Board, under its authority over "waters" as defined in the Nunavut Waters and Nunavut Surface Rights Tribunal Act
(NWNSRTA) and under section 12 of the same Act; 2. the INAC Water Resource Office appointed under the NWNSRTA as an Inspector and with authority under section 86; and 3. the operator or site manager of the barges and tug so the documents can be provided at the request of an Inspector designated under the NWNSRTA.

The Spill Contingency Plan should followed the guidance of the Spill Contingency Planning and Reporting Regulations under the Nunavut Environmental Protection Act, including the use of the Nunavut Spill Report form and a list of Regulatory Spill Reporting Requirements for Nunavut, such as the INAC Inspector, Environment Canada and Nunavut Department of Environment. The spill plan should also contain details and any agreements for assistance and response from/by the local residents of the community of Baker Lake. 

If you have questions, please contact the Manager of Field Operations, Peter Kusugak at 867-975-4295, the INAC Water Resource Officer, Andrew Keim at 867-975-4289 or myself at 867-975-4550. I have also copied this email to the Nunavut Water Board and Rob Eno, Manager Pollution Control & Air Quality, Nunavut Department of Environment.
