Sorry, I said 80's. It was the early 90's that it was discovered.

Based on these recent monitoring results, the Government of Alberta has asked Golder Associates to undertake further monitoring of existing wells and drill additional monitoring wells. Additionally, Alberta Environment and Parks (AEP) would like to take environmental samples from inside six homes in the vicinity of the well where creosote was detected. Staff will be in contact with those residents to discuss this further.
