Reclaiming in-situ well pads built in peatland presents many challenges. Our project offers an innovative approach that removes the clay pad and geotextile, fluffs and re-profiles the buried peat, followed by the transfer of a moss layer to introduce propagules for peatland vegetation development. This technical note describes the civil earth work procedures to remove the clay pad and to create a flat, hydrologically connected peat surface suitable for peatland vegetation development.
