Re: dam-l Methyl mercury info request: Alberta


Dear Chris,

My name is Michael Smith. I am working on a master's degree in
environmental conservation at the University of New Hampshire. My master's
thesis is titled, "Way of Life of the Innu: Environmental and Social
IMpacts of Hydro-Developments in Northeastern Quebec." A partial reference
list that I refer to follows. Good luck!
