Turchenek, L and Tashe, N. 2010. Technical Data Report: Soils. Enbridge Northern Gateway Project. |
| Resource Purpose |
The purpose of this technical data report (TDR) is to describe the baseline characteristics of soils assessed for the development of the Enbridge Northern Gateway Project (the Project) as presented in the environmental and socio-economic assessment (ESA) (see Volume 6A). This TDR outlines the methods used to evaluate the baseline conditions, including soil series mapping in agricultural lands in Alberta and
the soil modelling approach used for non-agricultural soil and the Agricultural Land Reserve in British Columbia (see Section 2.4.3). The results of the evaluation will be used to predict project effects and assist in identifying measures required to minimize or avoid adverse environmental effects on soil during construction and operations. |
