Research and Development

We have developed equipment and procedures that enhance defensive capabilities while taking into account cost effectiveness, training simplification, and manpower.(Research and Development)

Special Hazards:

We have brought together the most qualified and experienced NBCD instructors (both English and French), capable of thorough briefings as well as the most capable consultation and hands-on training.

Many CEOs’ have seen that in these changing and uncertain times their representatives may need special training and or equipment due to the potential for local and regional crisis where a head office, for whatever reason, cannot effectively withdraw their people from harms way in an expedient manner.

Many agencies and companies now recognize their responsibility for employee safety both domestically and abroad in relation to terrorist use of weapons of mass destruction.

In many regions a crisis may erupt overnight, delaying intervention from either company head office or national agencies.

Nor Environmental has developed special training programs and consultation related to national agencies (Disaster Response and Government Agencies) and international industries with staff abroad.(Special Hazards)

The Company:

The business was founded in 1993 by its CEO Mr. Louis B. Brown. Originally the company envisioned dealing with solutions within Northern and Central Ontario to environmental and industrial radiation safety problems ( within the Cambrian Shield, for years many of these problems have not been dealt with in a cost effective or ecologically sound manner).

Nor Environmental is an environmentally responsible company working within a newly recognized area of expertise (in Canada). Our Radiation Safety Staff adhere to American Association of Radon Scientists and Technologists (AARST), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Atomic Energy Control Board (AECB) protocols and standards for the detection, evaluation, handling, and laboratory analysis of Radioactive material (natural and industrial).

Nor Environmental offers a number of Radiation Safety Services, from Radon Testing to Site Decontamination as well as being deeply involved in the effort to find a safe and effective Low Level Radioactive Waste Disposal (LLRW) Site within Northern Ontario.
