Résumé
Diesel was accidently released into the shallow subsurface at an industrial site in the province of Québec, Canada, in the late 1980s. Subsequent remediation efforts removed much of the contamination; however, traces of petroleum hydrocarbons continue to impact the local aquifer. In addition to the historical diesel spill, more recent yet unconfirmed accidental releases from ongoing on-site and neighbouring industrial activities may have potentially contributed to elevated levels of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in groundwater. To identify the main source(s) of contamination, compound-specific stable carbon isotope ratios (δ
