43rd CLRA/ACRSD National Conference and AGM

In conjunction with

2018 Atlantic Reclamation Conference (ARC2018)

October 15 – 18, 2018

Miramichi, New Brunswick

Organized by the Canadian Land Reclamation Association (CLRA/ACRSD), Atlantic Chapter and the New Brunswick Community College (NBCC), Miramichi Campus

The 43rd CLRA/ACRSD National Conference and AGM held in conjunction with the 2018 Atlantic Reclamation Conference (ARC2018) on October 15‐18, 2018 at New Brunswick Community College Miramichi Campus in Miramichi, New Brunswick. 

The ARC series brings together Atlantic Canada’s brightest minds and practitioners focused on reclaiming, restoring, and revitalizing impacted lands and waterways. With the expansion to a national conference, there will be an increased breadth of exposure of reclamation and restoration practices from all regions across Canada and even the United States.

Our theme this year is “Planning for the Annual 100 Year Event” and we have two very exciting opening plenary sessions The conference will kick off on Monday, October 15th with a pre-conference field tour of the largest mine reclamation project in New Brunswick.  Glencore Canada Corporation has agreed to host our field tour and will highlight almost 10 years of remediation work. The field tour will commence from the NBCC campus at 11:00 a.m. Monday. The field tour will be followed by an evening Meet and Greet that will start at 7:00 p.m. at the host hotel – Rodd Inns. NOTE: A previously scheduled river cruise Meet and Greet had to be canceled due to a decision to rebuild the waterfront wharf this fall. This will be followed by two days of technical sessions, a National AGM meeting and a Gala Awards dinner. In addition, a field trip to a peatland restoration project will take place on October 18 and is conveniently located on the route taking participants back from the Miramichi area. If anyone is interested in assisting in the conference planning, feel free to contact any one of the Board Members and we will include you on the planning committee. Volunteers are always welcome!
