This presentation outlines the current standards for allowable cuts in Alberta's forests based on the potential increases in flow rates and flow volumes after trees are harvested.
Several foothills/mountain coal mine waste dumps were selected for the purpose of evaluating the effects of final configuration on the amount of surface erosion occurring on those dump surfaces
Consolidate information on known methods of reclaiming wildlife habitat in the mountain and foothills biomes and to develop methods of assessing reclamation success for certification
The objectives of the study are to provide recommendations on the most suitable methods for establishing and maintaining self-sustaining and productive plant communities in the Alberta tar sands area
