This report describes an effective method to compare historical with contemporary cumulative land use footprint. Four disturbance footprint indicators were evaluated in East Central Alberta in an area of In situ oil sands development. Footprint indicators included total land use footprint, corridor density, riparian footprint and core area. Orthorectified imagery from 1981 was compared with more recent (2001) base feature themes and then mapped using ArcGIS. The project indicated that the method used is an effective method to analyze footprint rate of change. For the selected study area, all four footprint indicators demonstrated substantial changes over the 20 year time period.

As part of its work of ensuring that the various partnerships and multi-stakeholder groups that the province is engaged with are functioning well and meeting the needs of both the government and its partners, two reports into the Cumulative Environmental Management Association (CEMA) have been prepared. The review by PricewaterhouseCoopers into the effectiveness of CEMA was released November 2008. A further report was commissioned jointly by the government of Alberta and the Athabasca Tribal Council First Nations and prepared by Integrated Environments and Tumbleweed Consultants.
The Government of Alberta is committed to cumulative effects management and multi-stakeholder partnerships and will continue to engage with First Nations and stakeholders to ensure that effective organizations and structures are in place. These reports will inform this work as it proceeds.
