Guidance Document on Management of Methane Gas Adjacent to Landfills

Significant economic development in the Province of Alberta has led to increased pressure for development of land adjacent to landfills. Methane gas migration from these landfills may pose a potential hazard to the occupants of these properties. At present, no guidelines exist in the Province of Alberta for the assessment and management of methane gas. In order to accommodate existing and proposed developments adjacent to active and inactive landfills, Alberta Environmental Protection (AEP) funded the development of this guidance document on the management of methane gas and its potential impacts. The terms of reference for and review of this document were developed jointly by representatives of AEP, City of Calgary Solid Waste Services and Calgary Regional Health Authority.
