The Hardy Dam

The Ministry of Natural Resources will conduct an environmental asssessment to halt seepage of an earthern dam near Atikokan.


The Hardy Dam was constructed as part of the former Steep Rock Mine's water diversion project.

Spokesperson Michelle Novak says they're aren't ruling out a complete collapse.

The condition of the Hardy dam is part of an ongoing study to rehabilitate the former Iron ore mine site.
