    Scientists and DFO spar over equipment stranded at Experimental Lakes Area

    The Department of Fisheries and Oceans is refusing to say whether scientists who have left equipment at a shuttered research lab in northern Ontario will be allowed to retrieve their things.

    Over $205,000 in research tools and vehicles owned by universities � some of them American � have been left in limbo ever since the federal government announced the sudden closure of the Experimental Lakes Area in last year�s budget.

    The ELA was officially padlocked on March 31, but DFO isn�t giving inquiring researchers a clear answer on whether they can recoup their equipment that was meant to be used in ongoing experiments.

    �There�s a lot of sensitive equipment that cannot be moved by people who don�t know how to move it,� said Britt Hall, an assistant professor at the University of Regina and spokesperson for Save the ELA, a group petitioning Ottawa to reverse the closure.

    On the bright side, coming soon to a Harper Government auction near you:
