Description:   The impacts of uranium tailings effluents on the water chemistry and aquatic communities of four lake ecosystems near Elliot Lake, Ontario, were studied.  Olive Lake was determined to be the most suitable lake for long-term studies.  Water pH, conductivity, microorganism populations, and sulphate, radium-226, and metal concentrations were measured and their effects upon aquatic life were discussed.
