Traces Québec, available in web and mobile versions, is a high-performance, state-of-the-art computer system designed to manage traceability data related to excavated contaminated soil. Featuring a user-friendly and secure interface, this system was developed by Attestra on behalf of the Ministère de l’Environnement, de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs (MELCCFP) and is available free of charge online at all times.

Registering in the system, which must be done through the web portal, allows users to register and create an account for their organization (company, municipality, ministry or agency). Thereafter, by using the Traces Québec web or mobile versions, it becomes possible for users, depending on the permissions granted to the organization, to carry out some of the following actions:

• Create a project where contaminated soil is being excavated and enter the associated information;
• Add stakeholders or observers who can participate in updating the information inherent to the project, or just follow the progress of the work;
• Add receiving sites for companies that have them;
• Certify the project once the excavation of contaminated soil is completed.
