Description
Summary:During September 1954, at the request of Mr. McMillan, Superintendent, Norman Wells Refinery, one bore hole was drilled at each of two proposed development sites in the Imperial Oil Limited camp area to supply information on the soil and permafrost conditions. However, general statements of soil and permafrost conditons at Norman Wells cannot be made since only one bore hole was drilled at each site. The results are therefore reported as logs of the bore holes with test results where samples were obtained. Peer reviewed: No NRC publication: Yes
