Environment and Climate Change Canada confirmed they sent an investigator to Reay Creek to determine whether any federal legislation was violated. Because their investigation is ongoing, they were unable to comment further.

Hundreds of dead fish were found in Vancouver Island's Reay Creek on Friday afternoon, and conservationists are concerned they were killed by contaminants flowing from a nearby storm drain.
 

Ian Bruce, executive coordinator with the conservation group Peninsula Streams Society, said the fish were spotted by a young boy, whose parents alerted the Town of Sidney. Town officials then called in the society to examine the fish and stream.

Bruce said 318 cutthroat trout, 13 sculpins, 11 stickleback and three coho, along with crayfish, worms and other small species were counted among the dead animals within a 150-metre span of the creek.
