Amelioration and Revegetation of Smelter Contaminated Soils in the Coeur D'Alene Mining District of Northern Idaho
Resource
Results of two experiments, one greenhouse project and one field study, indicate that high heavy metal concentrations in smelter-contaminated soils and in tree seedlings grown thereon, increase...
An Economical Penetrometer for High Strength Soils
Resource
The Centre Cone Penetrometer was developed as a low-cost instrument suitable for compaction studies. Simple in design, this hand-held penetrometer uses a helical compression spring to relate applied...
An Evaluation of Non-seeding Reclamation Techniques on an Oil Sands Pipeline Right-of-way
Resource
An evaluation of the revegetation success of seeded and non-seeded portions of a buried oil sands water pipeline right-of-way was conducted at the Esso Resources' Cold Lake Production Project site...
An Evaluation of the Influence of Grass/Legume Mixtures on Tree Species at the Judy Creek Test Mine
Resource
The influence of competition of agronomic mixtures on out planted lodgepole pine and white spruce was investigated on study plots at the Judy Creek Test Mine from 1979 to 1983. Two agronomic seed...
An Overview of Pipelining
Resource
As an overview to pipelining in Alberta, prior to 1976 there was no requirement for operators to conserve topsoil or ensure growth capability. However, with the passing of Alberta Regulation 207/76...
Analyzing the Impacts of Road Construction on the Development of a Poor Fen in Northeastern Alberta, Canada
Resource
Linear disturbances such as powerline rights of way, seismic lines and roads are common in areas of intensive resource development. Roads that bisect wetlands can alter their hydrologic connectivity...
Application of Artificial Substrate Samplers to Assess Enrichment of Metals of Concern by River Floodwaters to Lakes Across the Peace-Athabasca Delta
Resource
Potential for downstream delivery of contaminants via Athabasca River floodwaters to lakes of the PAD has raised local to international concern. Here, we quantify enrichment of eight metals (Be, Cd...
Applications and Costs of Wildlife Habitat Reclamation
Resource
The costs and methods of wildlife habitat reclamation are discussed for three examples. The first example, the Cascade Landfill site in Banff National Park, illustrates the approach and costs of...
