As part of the research activities of the St. Lawrence Action Plan (SLAP) and in collaboration with Parks Canada, a 5-year monitoring program was initiated to assess the effect of metal and element contamination to clams in the Tadoussac area. The sites of concern included marinas near municipalities (municipal discharges) and a natural site was selected for reference purposes. One other site was selected due to it being a regular feeding area for the local beluga population. Determining the quality of the food source is important.
All data are a part subject of a publication containing method details, full QA/QC, interpretation and conclusions. Citation: Gagné F, André C, Turgeon S, Ménard N.

St. Lawrence Action Plan (SLAP):
The St. Lawrence Action Plan (SLAP) 2011 to 2026 (see https://www.planstlaurent.qc.ca/en/) is the latest Canada-Quebec Agreement on the St. Lawrence and builds on the four previous agreements implemented since 1988. The agreement aims to conserve and enhance the St. Lawrence. It is based on strong collaboration and the pooling of resources and expertise between the governments of Canada and Quebec. As part of their respective responsibilities for the management of the St. Lawrence basin, these two governments recognize the need for close cooperation to tackle the environmental challenges facing this important ecosystem. Other partners are also joining in this initiative, including local organizations, environmental groups, research centres, and universities.
