Under the Canada-Wide Environmental
Standards Sub-Agreement, the federal, provincial and territorial
Environment Ministers (except for Quebec) have agreed to work together
to develop appropriate Canada-wide standards for environmental contaminants
or issues of national concern. Since 1998, New Brunswick has been
involved in this Canadian Council of Ministers of Environment (CCME)-led
initiative to develop and implement Canada-wide Standards for a
selected group of pollutants which includes particulate matter,
ozone, mercury, dioxins and furans, petroleum hydrocarbons in soil,
and benzene
Information on New Brunswick's implementation plans for Canada-wide
Standards is provided below. More information on the Canada-wide
Standards is available on the CCME web site at http://www.ccme.ca
