Proceedings of a Workshop on Reclamation of Disturbed Lands in Alberta

Human activities have a considerable impact on the landscape. In the past, development in Alberta often proceeded with the simple objective of reaping the maximum benefits, leaving the site abandoned and sterile. Today, there is a growing realization that this need not be so. Properly managed and reclaimed, disturbed lands can be restored to productivity for perpetuity.
The Workshop reported in these Proceedings covered essentially all active research and development projects for reclamation of land disturbances in Alberta. The purpose was to provide informal communication and discussion of current programs and results. Thus some material presented was highly preliminary and there has been minimal editing of
submissions.
