History and mission
Founded by Marc Pelletier in 2005, his consulting company was born of 40 years of experience and expertise. This was acquired first as a geologist in various domains, such as mining exploration (Noranda, SDBJ, Quebec Dept of Natural Resources, small mining companies), cartography of unconsolidated deposits (Quebec Dept of Natural Resources) geology applied to civil engineering (Quebec Minister of Transport, Technisol. Terratech).
Beginning in 1980, he has carried out many studies with private firms (Logimer, Procean Inc., Procean Environnement Inc. and SNC-Lavalin) as well as public organizations (Dept of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada). These mainly involved the characterization and management of the coastal zone, dragging and management of sediments (contaminated and non-contaminated), hydro- and sediment dynamics, as well as the environmental analysis of plans for hydroelectric, port and maritime development projects.
In addition, he has directed several major research and development projects in the fields of teledetection, geophysics and marine geomagnetics. He has also been involved in the characterization and risk-analysis of underwater dumpsites of explosive munitions (UXO).
