Wabamun & Area Community Exposure & Health Effects Assessment Program (WACEHEAP)

The Wabamun and Area Community Exposure and Health Effects Assessment Program (WACEHEAP) is an air quality and human health initiative developed to look at various air contaminants people are exposed to in this area and to examine health conditions that may be related to these exposures.

The program was developed in response to concerns about potential health impacts from coal-fired power generating stations in the area that were raised in recent hearings of the Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (AEUB).
