A catalogue containing 22 technologies for reducing the environmental impact of fine tailings derived from oil sand processing has been assembled

Organic amendments reviewed included animal manures, crop residues, peat, wood waste, sewage sludge, municipal yard waste, humates, vermicomposts and spent mushroom compost. The effect of these organi

Part 1 of this manual is a background and explanatory section that describes the terminology used in soil surveys and presents the assumptions and conventions upon which the interpretations are based

Part 2 presents typical data and interpretations for each soil series in Alberta. The interpretations were made by applying the guidelines in Part 1, and checking the results against experience

4-year project to collect, multiply, evaluate, and select native legume species for inclusion in a native seed mixture being developed at AEC for reclamation in the mountains and foothills

To assess climatic and soil conditions under which salts will move out of the root zone in a soil disturbed by a pipeline and to determine the rate at which salts will move in disturbed soils.

Summary of a survey to determine the reclamation research needs of organizations/industries in Alberta that are involved with industrial disturbances and to prioritize research needs.

This document provides the full list of reports published by the Reclamation Research Technical Advisory Committee from 1979 to 1994

This report is a condensed version of two reports on the chemistry of a variety of oil sands substrates from Syncrude, Suncor, OSLO and SolvEx.

Research plots were constructed on the Syncrude mine site at Mildred Lake to test effect of thickness and quality of replaced soil over tailings sand on the performance of trees and shrubs

Conceptual and analytical framework for quantifying risks to terrestrial wildlife that might be exposed to solid-phase materials potentially associated with oil sands reclamation

The Workshop covered all active research and development projects for reclamation of land disturbances in Alberta. Purpose was to provide communication and discussion of current programs and results

The objective of this report is to determine if the current values for soil salinity, sodicity and pH need to be revised to reflect plant species’ tolerances for these soil parameters

This handbook recognizes the potential adverse impact of pipeline construction on the environment and the public and identifies environmental protection measures to minimize those impacts.

This document Is a guideline for the preparation of a Development and Reclamation (D & R) Application for a regulated pipeline

Five common soil handling procedures for conservation of agricultural lands during pipeline construction are discussed in terms of their relative effectiveness for different soil types

Regulatory expectations with respect to the detailed content of applications for approvals of surface disturbances and the reclamation of lands.

Minimum reclamation standards that should be followed to ensure proper conservation and reclamation on patented and and land that was the property of the Crown but covered by the Public Lands Act
