Spring Reclamation
Let us take a moment to be grateful for the things that haven’t changed this year - gorgeous sites ready for their Detailed Site Assessment, and Reclamation Certificate!
A Detailed Site Assessment (or, DSA) is the final stage before we can prepare a Reclamation Certificate Application. A successful DSA will show that the land use capacity of the lease is equivalent to its surroundings, by including data on vegetation cover and health, soil composition and depth, and landscape and contouring.
With the current abundance of inactive leases, producers may not even be aware that they have a portfolio of Reclamation Certificate ready leases, simply needing a DSA. Arletta’s professional staff are practiced at recognizing these leases when doing site checks, and can quickly get them off the books.
Even when a DSA does not show that a site is ready for a Reclamation Certificate, we can use that DSA data to provide an accurate and effective reclamation cost estimate to progress the site to closure.
DSA’s and Reclamation Certificate Applications are some of the core work that Arletta’s professional staff take pride in conducting. We are well versed in different land uses, vegetation species and using professional justifications. Arletta’s project management staff also understand how to build a reclamation portfolio that keeps on going - building sites in at every stage of the process to keep Rec Certs coming for years!
