Feature Project

ALPHA SWALE W1 PROJECT

The objective of this project was to disperse precipitation water flow and reduce surface erosion that could lead to gully formation, within a re-constructed waterway (swale) built on Syncrude Canada ’s W1 overburden dump. Establishment of vegetation and creation of wildlife habitat were other objectives.
