The Alberta Oil Sands Sustainable Development Secretariat is undertaking the preparation of a series of Comprehensive Regional Infrastructure Sustainability Plan (CRISPs) for the Province’s Oil Sands Areas.
The CRISPs will establish long-term blueprints for future infrastructure and community development based on anticipated bitumen production rates and associated population growth. They are a strategic plan for growth and infrastructure and focus on how future population and employment growth will be accommodated as well as future infrastructure needs related to transportation, water and wastewater servicing, schools and health care facilities.
planningAlliance engaged Associated Engineering as the engineering partner to undertake the preparation the Cold Lake Oils Sands CRISP. The study involved undertaking an assessment of current infrastructure, population and employment forecast, and identifying requirements for future growth and upgrading. Associated Engineering’s regional knowledge, experience, and long standing relationships within both public and private sectors proved invaluable for successfully completing the study.
