正文(英文) | December 8, 2017 Edmonton Natural Resources Canada Canada is investing in research and development in our natural resource sectors to support the economy and our environment for future generations. Today, Randy Boissonnault, Member of Parliament for Edmonton Centre, on behalf of Canada’s Minister of Natural Resources, Jim Carr, announced an investment of over $1.5 million for two projects that will enhance marine incident prevention and responsiveness in Canada’s oceans. Through its Oil Spill Response Science (OSRS) program, the Government of Canada provided the University of Alberta with $600,000 to develop an oil-and-water separation system that may be eventually deployed on a recovery vessel to significantly reduce the cost and spill-response time for a marine cleanup. MP Boissonnault also announced over $925,000 to B.C. Research Inc., a company with a broad experience in chemical product development, to further develop a hybrid spill-treating agent that will help slow or prevent the spread of an oil slick on water. OSRS is a four-year, $5-million program aimed at improving the technologies and techniques for recovering or removing heavy oil products from marine environments, in the unlikely event of a spill. Our government recognizes the importance of environmental stewardship and will continue to invest in clean technology and drive clean growth.
