The Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) has received part of the Government of Alberta’s recent $5M investment to support work that will restore historically drained wetlands. NAIT has received nearly $700K to restore 17.8 hectares of wetlands in the Municipal District of Opportunity No 17. “This provides a unique opportunity to test, develop and implement innovative and effective solutions to restore disturbed peatlands across Alberta,” explained NAIT NSERC Industrial Research Chair for Colleges in Peatland Restoration Dr Bin Xu. “This not only achieves the goal of replacing disturbed wetlands but also contributes to the advancement of reclamation science and practice in Alberta and across Canada.”
