Closure & Reclamation

Responsible Closure, Real Results

Closure & Reclamation

From initial assessment to reclamation certification, we support clients in every step of responsible site closure and liability reduction.

Reclaiming Land, Restoring Value

End-of-Life Environmental Solutions Built on Science

Our team delivers full-cycle support for asset retirement, including
environmental assessment, remediation, and reclamation.

Whether you’re decommissioning a single asset or closing out a complex
industrial facility, we apply proven science, practical field experience, and
regulatory insight to restore land and manage liability.

With a 97% success rate in reclamation, MEMS helps clients achieve closure
confidently and cost-effectively.

Full Lifecycle Closure Support

From Decommissioning to Reclamation
Certification

MEMS offers end-to-end services in asset retirement, including Phase 1 and 2 ESAs, remediation planning and execution, infrastructure removal, regrading and erosion control, habitat restoration, and reclamation applications.

We integrate disturbed lands with surrounding environments, restore biodiversity, and ensure long-term land stability.

With extensive experience across mining, energy, and industrial sites, we help clients reduce costs and meet regulatory expectations.

Cost-Effective Remediation for
Contaminated Sites

MEMS brings innovation and regulatory expertise to brownfield redevelopment.

We use risk-based approaches to reduce liability and remediation costs, making redevelopment feasible for properties with residual contamination.

Our experts have authored Alberta’s Tier 1 and Tier 2 Guidelines and have helped urban, rural, and industrial sites overcome redevelopment barriers.

Services include soil vapour and hazardous materials assessment, Tier 2 criteria, demolition supervision, and groundwater treatment.

From Strategy to Certification

Planning for Long-Term Environmental
Stewardship

MEMS develops and implements Conservation & Reclamation (C&R) Plans for a wide range of project types, including pipelines, landfills, mines, SAGD facilities, and more.

Our multi-disciplinary team handles pre-disturbance assessments, decommissioning, revegetation, post-closure monitoring, and regulatory engagement.

With over five decades of experience in mine and facility closure, we deliver detailed, practical plans that satisfy stakeholder expectations and regulatory requirements.

Reducing Liability Through Innovative
Site Management

We help clients take advantage of Alberta’s Area-Based Closure program, providing efficient, risk informed solutions that reduce environmental liability.

By tailoring site-specific criteria and initiating approved risk-based processes, MEMS has helped reduce remediation costs by orders of magnitude—without imposing future land use restrictions.

Our team excels at managing complex sites, including those with shallow groundwater, operating infrastructure, and access limitations.

Mitigating Risks with Cost-Effective Solutions

Risk-Based Site Assessment and
Remediation Strategies

MEMS uses a risk-based approach to site assessment and remediation, helping clients save up to 60% in costs compared to traditional methods.

Our team develops targeted remediation strategies based on site-specific risk assessments, addressing contaminants while minimizing environmental liability.

Our expertise includes ecological effects assessment, soil vapor sampling, and fate and transport modeling, ensuring effective risk mitigation and remediation.
