Description

The goal of the Native Prairie Protocol is to avoid the disturbance of sensitive native grasslands associated with remediation of salt contamination when it can be shown that the contamination is not causing an adverse effect. Native grassland is very sensitive to disturbance. The Native Prairie Protocol provides an approach for identifying sites where adverse effects from elevated salinity are not occurring, and are not expected to occur in the future. Sites that meet the conditions specified in the Native Prairie Protocol are eligible for reclamation certification without further remediation even though salt concentrations may exceed Alberta Tier 1 guidelines.
