Reclamation is the creation of a healthy environment that can support various land uses after mining is complete. The project will be the first step in informing the development of traditional use-indicators for the Criteria and Indicator Framework for Oil Sands Mine Reclamation Certification. The proposed approach for conducting this project is based on methods developed by the RWG as part of the Biodiversity Traditional Knowledge Study; the updated Traditional Knowledge Research Guidelines issued by the TKWG in 2013; and methods used in Sustainable Forest Management Systems in other regions of Canada. A collaborative, team-based approach will be used to conduct the project. The joint Task Group will be comprised of members of the Aboriginal Coordinating Committee (ACC), Traditional Knowledge Working Group (TKWG), and the Reclamation Working Group (RWG).
