A new approach to site restoration
Terra-Sano is an experienced full-service earthworks, reclamation and environmental consulting team. We provide integrated surface abandonment, decommissioning and reclamation/remediation services.
GETTING TO A RECLAMATION CERTIFICATE
Terra-Sano specializes in managing each stage leading to the achievement of a reclamation certificate and completing the tasks required by regulatory agencies. By handling every stage of the process, with a strict focus on time-sensitive and detail oriented solutions, we provide the highest level of project quality. Working as an integrated team, we capture economies of scale and avoid the traditional spending approach, increasing the amount of work on tangible site restoration and lowering administrative costs. We use a thorough reclamation assessment process to develop a practical and efficient plan that delivers meaningful project solutions. Our proprietary project management tool provides real-time activity and budget tracking, ensures regulatory compliance, and systematically organizes all documentation related to a project in one location. Our goal is to make your money count and reduce your exposure to regulatory uncertainty by shortening the reclamation cycle.

Services
At Terra-Sano, we whole-heartedly believe in the need to eliminate the “single-purpose” work practice that has become commonplace within the reclamation industry. These practices promote wastefulness, inefficiencies and, ultimately, add significant costs to the process of obtaining a reclamation certificate. All services are completed in house, which reduces consulting time and rescheduling expenses, while ensuring Terra-Sano remains accountable for the project from start to finish. We have a complete fleet of heavy, agricultural and transportation equipment, as well as aerial survey services, and advanced environmental sampling and analysis equipment. Give us an opportunity to describe our processes and demonstrate how we will save you money.

RELATED DOCUMENTS
In the midst of the most significant petroleum downturn in decades, Canadians are concerned about the number of inactive and “orphan” oil and gas wells in Western Canada and the associated public liability. At the same time, abandonment and reclamation costs are soaring, while the time and expense of getting to a reclamation certificate have ballooned. In these economically and politically uncertain times, environmental groups and the general public are urging politicians and regulators to set agressive abandonment and reclamation timelines and hold the industry accountable.
