Video - Site Adjustment for Peatland Restoration: NAIT Boreal Research Institute

The NAIT Boreal Research Institute is located in the Peace River oilsands region of northwestern Alberta. One of the key research initiatives at the Insitute is peatland restoration.

There are two main goals of the research:

  1. to restore the normal water flow between the reclaimed wellsite and the surrounding peatland
  2. to restore native plant communities, largely dominated by Spaghnum moss, in the sensitive wetland ecosystem
