This report identifies historical, annual and open water, low flow sequences for 13 stations in the Athabasca River Basin which can be used to determine management guidelines for the River basin

Includes sections outlining the requirements of: Environmental impact to tar sands development, Water Resources Act, Clean Air Act , Clean Water Act and land reclamation

No impact on jack pine physiology was found when concentrations of the dominant pollutants from Oil Sands operations equivalent to 104 years of soluble disposition were added to intact soil cores

In the course of the program, 7,608 shovel tests were excavated for the purpose of locating prehistoric sites in Syncrude's Bituminous Sands Lease No. 22.

describe existing environmental conditions in, and to document natural biological colonization of, the West Interceptor Ditch and determine the degree of biological colonization of lower Beaver Creek

Emphasis is placed on processes influencing temporal and spatial patterns in circulation, stratification and saline water distributions. Owing to its density, the high salinity effluent tends to sink

The study consisted of three parts: 1) A general reconnaissance early in the study period including a survey of fish species, benthic invertebrates, periphyton (attached algae) and water quality

Studies were continued in 1976 into the improvement of a five year old revegetated area on a tailings sand dike by the implementation of different fertilizer programs.

Ten sites in the system were sampled regularly for physical-chemical parameters, phytoplankton, zooplankton and benthic macroinvertebrates. Additional surveys were done for fish, aquatic macrophytes,

Peak discharge for the year was 22.5 m3/sec and the low 0.2 m3/sec. A total of 80 benthic macroinvertebrate taxa and 19 fish species were collected.
