Get an independent study of wildlife contamination in Faro area

A variety of related contamination concerns are covered here including; moose in contact with Faro tailings ponds, sheep at the mine site and downstream effects on wildlife. Some skepticism was expressed by RRDC and the community about industry and government contamination studies. An independent contractor should be hired by RRDC to take samples in areas identified by local people. A possible source of funding for this could be the Yukon Fish and Wildlife Enhancement Trust.
