The Herald Reclamation Project began in the summer of 1989 and, to date, has involved clean up of a 2 acre oil spill, salvage of metal equipment used by a now defunct oil cleaning business, and proper grading of roughly 5 acres of land. The Herald Oilfield Service site, located about 120 km NW of High Level , Alberta, was brought to the attention of the Land Reclamation Division of Alberta Environment by Alberta Forestry, Lands and Wildlife. The project was funded by the Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund Land Reclamation Program which has provided over $76,000.00, not including Government personnel and travel expenses. The oil spill was multi-layered: oil/water/oil/oil -contaminated soil and the oil was strewn with debris. These problems frustrated the clean up, which was completed after 14 days . Future reclamation alternatives for oil-contaminated soil stockpiled on site have been considered and a combined approach initiated.
