The Daily Commercial News and Construction Record reports on how the city of Calgary is progressing with its remediation and redevelopment of East Village Stormwater Wetland. Park space is being established on the former contamination site near the confluence of the Bow and Elbow Rivers. Geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) have been installed to separate clean and contaminated waters. The project was a finalist in 2008 for a Canadian Urban Institute Brownie Award. The competition cited the proper use of capping technologies among the project’s exemplary design points.
