Grant Bruce can show you how these two spots on opposite sides of the globe are connected by the thread of BC innovation. And he can tell you how the province\u2019s high-tech firms are exporting our environmental protection regulations as well as cutting-edge technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bruce is the President and Senior Environmental Chemist of Hatfield Consultants, an environmental consulting firm providing environmental and social consulting services to the natural resources sector. Founded in 1974, the firm helps industry with permitting, regulation compliance and environmental monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That expertise gave Hatfield Consultants the edge during the 1980s when BC pulp and paper mills were faced with new regulations to deal with the dioxins produced by the paper bleaching process of the time. Highly toxic, dioxins accumulate in the food chain and can cause multiple health problems, including cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Concerns over dioxin contamination closed fisheries on the West Coast, including the famed Dungeness crab fishery in Howe Sound. The public, industry and government needed to know if new technologies aimed at eliminating the dioxins were working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat Hatfield did was to verify the effectiveness of these treatment options and it showed very conclusively that the technologies that were being implemented were successful,\u201d said Bruce. \u201cSo we gained that knowledge here and became experts in environmental monitoring for trace levels of things like dioxins.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast-forward to the mid-1990s and Vietnam, where the government was grappling with the legacy of Agent Orange, a powerful defoliant sprayed over about 10 per cent of the country by U.S. forces during the war in Indo-China. &nbsp;Among the contaminants in it were dioxins. So the Vietnamese turned to Hatfield Consultants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe were able to leverage the experience we\u2019d gained in BC to work with the Vietnamese to understand the environmental and health impacts related to that spraying campaign,\u201d says Bruce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNow, partly because of all the evidence that Hatfield and others were able to amass over the last couple of decades, the Americans are have recognized they have an obligation to clean up the mess they left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hatfield Consultants are part of the clean up around Danang, site of a large U.S. Air Force base during the war. Working with an engineering company, they designed an innovative facility to remove dioxins from the contaminated soil and prevent further leeching into the environment. Hatfield is about to start a similar project in Bien Hoa near Ho Chi Min City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThat was kind of cool, going from monitoring Dungeness crab in Howe Sound to monitoring breast milk in residents around a fishing pond in Danang,\u201d says Bruce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s just one example of how B.C. firms who service the natural resources sector take innovations developed in this province around the globe. But Bruce says BC is also an exporter of leading environmental rules and regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI would argue that we\u2019ve played a leading role in some countries in helping to establish these environmental standards,\u201d says Bruce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Indonesian environmental assessment process, which is reflective of what we do here in Canada, was largely developed by Canadians, including one expert who is still with our company.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bruce says the public is largely unaware of BC\u2019s leadership role in developing, implementing and enforcing some of the highest environmental protection regulations in the world. He says industry and government have to play a larger role in getting that message out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe need to do a much better job in general of promoting a pretty good news story despite all the doom and gloom you hear in the newspapers and the press,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBased on my experience of working around the world, I think environmental compliance and environmental standards in Canada are extremely high.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out more about Hatfield Consultants &#8211; including how they&#8217;re now using space technology to protect the environment and help resource industries &#8211; by checking out their&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hatfieldgroup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Do you know of a company that Naturally Resourceful should profile?
