"Dawn is an environmental trailblazer who coaches and mentors her peers on both provincial and federal environmental best practices. She ensures the organizations that she works for remain in compliance with government legislation. When Dawn arrived at Voisey’s Bay, she performed a pre-mobilization WHMIS audit to identify resources and cost-saving opportunities towards handling, shipping, and storing our hazardous waste. Her site-wide program was well received and the labeling and storing of many hazardous products with SDS tags placed within secondary containment sea-cans were the backbone of being environmentally conscience. She is a walking advocate for switching to post-consumer waste (PCW), paper products, and packaging. The environment is not only her job, it’s her lifestyle. She believes in internal responsibility and I learned a great deal of information surrounding government spill reporting requirements and ERP spill response. If I ever obtain the opportunity to work with Dawn again, I most definitely will. She is a true change agent and makes a difference on any project she is a part of."
