The goal of the project are to investigate ground- and satellite-based aerosol remotely sensed (RS) data along with aerosol simulations to analyze and contextualize the aerosol data acquired by onboard sensors during the PONEX (POlar Night EXperiment) airborne mission that will fly out of Inuvik, NT in January of 2026 (aerosols being airborne particles of dust, pollution, sea-salt etc. ). Regional contextualization provides critical redundancy as well as complementary information to any given aerosol or aerosol-cloud event detected by the suite of PONEX sensors. The output product will, in general, be a significantly more insightful understanding of PONEX aerosol measurements.

The Petrolia Watermain Upgrade project in Petrolia, Ontario addresses critical housing and infrastructure needs. This capital project involves replacing the existing 200mm watermain with a 300mm watermain on Petrolia Line from east of Bear Creek to Oil Heritage Road, then south down Oil Heritage Road. The new watermain will extend to the future development entrance on Oil Heritage Road, enabling the construction of five residential developments. The project includes removing and replacing approximately 2,025 metres of watermain, supporting the development of 1,032 new housing units. This will increase Petrolia's housing supply by 40%, including a mix of single and multi-residential units. The upgrade will reduce watermain breaks, benefitting 542 existing properties and future developments. Additionally, it will increase fire flow by 346%, improving emergency response times. The outcome will be enhanced housing availability, increased affordability, supporting the town's growth, and attracting new commercial and industrial developments.

The Avonlough Sanitary Pumping Station and Conveyance project in Belleville, Ontario addresses critical infrastructure needs to support residential development. This capital project involves constructing a new sanitary pumping station with an initial capacity of 100 litres per second (L/s), for 1,800 housing units, expandable to 490L/s to ultimately service approximately 9,000 units. The project includes installing twin force mains, new gravity and pressure sewers along Bridge Street West, and decommissioning the existing small pumping station. The new station will feature two wet wells, submersible pumps, and backup power. The new station will replace aging infrastructure, improve capacity, and ensure reliable sanitary service. The outcome will unlock development lands in the Loyalist West Secondary Plan area, supporting growth for approximately 30 years and enhancing public health and worker safety.

This project aims to support travel and training costs for staff working on restorative justice, including visits to Inuit inmates, the participation to the National Restorative Justice Symposium in Ottawa, and to support the collaboration with Public Legal Information Association of Newfoundland and Labrador (PLIAN) to deliver restorative justice education and awareness to Nunatsiavut Government and communities.
