The Wetland Ecosystem Services Protocol for the United States (WESPUS) was highlighted by Alberta Environment as a method with the potential to help address identified gaps in the current regulatory context surrounding wetlands. This assessment was conducted for Alberta Environment by the Biophysical Team for the Wetland Ecosystem Services Pilot project in the Shepard Slough area east of Calgary, with the work being led and coordinated by O2 Planning + Design Inc. (O2). The intention of the WESPUS component of the pilot study was to identify the potential applicability of WESPUS in the context of Alberta’s biophysical and regulatory landscapes.

The purpose of this report is to provide those interested in using an ES Approach and other interested readers with an understanding of the approach taken and limitations identified in the approach itself, as well as the results. Based upon advice and experience of international experts it is understood that the work to assess ES within a strong policy context, and using knowledge from multiple disciplines, is leading edge, and attempts were made to ensure the pilot and results presented are credible, legitimate and policy relevant.

This manual provides Subdivision Authorities, planners, planning consultants and development officers with tools that can assist them to screen for, avoid and/or resolve environmental concerns associated with subdivision applications. Subdivision authorities are obliged to consider a variety of environmental factors in their decision as per the Subdivision and Development Regulation. In addition, users will find the Manual's advice helpful with respect to the environmental aspects of development reviews and as a reference document for the preparation of land use plans. Moreover, the Manual will assist users to pinpoint when a proposed development will likely require environmental approvals or authorizations pursuant to the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act (APEA), the Water Resources Act and/or the Public Lands Act.

Environment (AENV) to document Phase I through Phase III of a three-phase project to evaluate computer codes applied to predicting the fate and transport of hydrocarbons in soil and groundwater.
The first stage of the process consisted of a literature review to identify modelling codes applicable to the simulation of natural attenuation of various groups of hydrocarbons for typical Alberta soils, landscape and climatic conditions. A database was constructed based on readily available documentation, some discussion with model developers, and in-house expertise and experience of MDH personnel. The results of the review identified over 250 software packages.
