Description

The Government of Alberta (Alberta Transportation) proposes to construct flood mitigation infrastructure to divert extreme flood flow from the Elbow River into an off-stream reservoir where it would be temporarily contained and later released back into the Elbow River after the flood peak has passed. This publication provides periodic updates to the project status as it progresses.

General design guidelines for a constructed ‘habitat’ wetland – Boreal Forest Natural Region of Alberta

Description

This document provides general design parameters for reclaiming planned borrow and aggregate excavations into constructed habitat wetlands for the Boreal Forest Natural Region of Alberta,... More ≫

Description

This document provides general design parameters for reclaiming planned borrow and aggregate excavations into constructed habitat wetlands for the Boreal Forest Natural Region of Alberta, specifically for the Dry Mixedwood Natural Subregion (Figure 1.0), that may be suitable for the Alberta Transportation’s Wetland Habitat Bank Initiative. These sites may be used by the Department elsewhere to mitigate for wetland disturbance when avoidance and minimization is not an option.
