This project is to excavate and remove contaminated soil near the former incinerator site, south of the Muttart Conservatory at Gallagher Park. The area requiring remediation is on the western portion of Gallagher Park near the Peace Dove eastward to the first tree grove of trees as shown on the Excavation Limits Site Plan. The site will be restored to a grassy area suitable for public use.
