A Summary of Land Resource and Groundwater Resource Issues Related to Plains Coal Mine Reclamation in Alberta
Download1996
Trudell, M., Moran, S. R., Cheel, D., Macyk, T., Thacker, D.
Development and extraction of coal resources in Alberta disrupts the landscape and alters two other important resources, land and groundwater. In order to support coal resource development that was economically and environmentally responsible, the Reclamation Research Technical Advisory Committee...
