Human Practices
For human practices the University of Calgary team took a few approaches this year. We searched past and present legislation to find how the various levels of government mandate the regulation of naphthenic acids. This culminated in a report that is summarized below. The full report can be found here. We also contacted our locl safety board that condones our project. Their letter of support can be found here.
