CBC – TCE Groundwater Contamination

The image displays a comprehensive map of a city in Quebec, Canada, highlighting various areas in relation to TCE (Tetrachloroethylene) contamination. The map offers detailed environmental data, using distinct colors to delineate sections with historical TCE discharges and identified or potential waste sites.

Some focus points on the map are associated with military residences. Additionally, an area demonstrating the current direction of groundwater flow has also been marked.

A legend can be found in the top right of this image, visualizing the “Historical TCE discharges”, “Known and potential waste sites”, “TCE contamination (1995-2000)”. Additional labels and shapes have been added onto the map to highlight “Military residences”, “Groundwater flow direction” and ‘’TCE in groundwater contamination zone’’.

An inset map is added on the bottom left of this image to specify where in the world this event is taking place. Furthermore a scale bar is added underneath to put it into perspective.
