The Alberta Regeneration Standards for the Mineable Oil Sands (MOS ARS) applies to all Disposition Holders operating in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region under an Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act (EPEA) Approval for the Construction, Operation and Reclamation of an Oil Sands Mine. This manual has two general goals for implementation: adaptive management and continuous improvement. Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development (AESRD) is committed to applying these standards in a fashion designed to further these goals. This manual will be revised as data collection protocols are refined, as understanding of data needs in the Mineable Oil Sands improves, and as the goals and objectives of regeneration surveys are adjusted to reflect improved integration with the overall MOS reclamation process.
