"The Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) of the Lands and Minerals Sector is carrying out a mul-tidisciplinary project in the Fox Creek area, in west-central Alberta. The study area (700 km²) is located within the Athabasca River Basin, but very close to the limit of the Peace/Slave River Basin; these correspond to two very large watersheds of Alberta. This study area is also located in close proximity to the Little Smoky woodland caribou range, a very well-known range that is infamous for being the most critically disturbed boreal caribou habitat in the country. The objective of the Fox Creek project is to assess environmental impacts of oil and gas activities, including cumulative effects stemming from the different activities in the area. … The goal of this report is to provide an overview of the different types of wetlands within the Fox Creek area and to assess the potential impacts of changes in regional hydrology and water balance due to oil and gas activities on critical services and functions of boreal wetlands. Current best practices to mitigate negative impacts and to reclaim disturbed wetland ecosystems and key knowledge gaps and challenges will be discussed"--Introduction, page 6. Wetlands Alberta.
