Land Management Search Results

While a total of 11 species were encountered in the study area, only 6 were recorded in the upper diversion system (i.e., upstream of the Poplar Creek dam).

Of the 14 species seeded in 1976, only Lupine and the oat cover crop did not grow in 1977. A comparison of fall seeding versus spring seeding indicated that fall seeding could be successfully used

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.

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,

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

Significant factors relating to effects on physical and chemical characteristics of the northern Alberta environment as a result of potential oil sands development in the Athabasca tar sands were docu

Determine the acute and subacute toxicity of bitumen from banks of the Athabasca River downstream of Fort McMurray to rainbow trout. Concluded bitumen was not acutely toxic to fish under dosage tested

Study was undertaken in response to concerns raised by the City of Fort McMurray over the validity of the elevation established in previous studies as representing the 1 in 100 year design flood level

To alleviate potential adverse effects on the environment from the proliferation of linear facilities, the multiple use corridor concept has been accepted by FLW as a feasible remedy

Examines differences in health outcomes across the province and compares the Northern River Basin Study area with the other areas of the province and examines possible relationships between health out

Study was designed to assess exposure and associated health effects by direct measurement of personal exposure, direct measurement of biomarkers, and daily logs of a participant's activities

Describes the population and personal distribution of exposure to airborne chemicals and particulates in the city of Fort McMurray,

On May 30, 1968 G.C.O.S requested permission to discharge 110 x 106 ft3 of effluent from the sands tailings pond at the Fort McMurray site into the Athabasca River during periods of high river flow
