Register for November 11 Webinar: “Reclamation and Ecological Restoration Needs Across Borders” featuring Peter Beckett, Laurentian University, and others
Date & Time
November 11, 2025 2:00 p.m.
Disturbance for extractive resources is common throughout the globe. Each country, however, is unique, not only in the specific resource it is marketing to global customers, but also in the regulatory environment to handle such disturbance and ultimately reclamation. The ASRS International Initiative was designed to meet with global partners on a regular basis to discuss commonalities that can be addressed by a larger body of technical experts and practitioners. Three speakers will present “Reclamation and Ecological Restoration Needs Across Borders” on November 11 to discuss some aspect of resource extraction in their country and the challenges they face, while also presenting some of the things they are doing to address those challenges. Speakers will include: Dr. Peter Becket, Professor Emeritus, Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario; Dr. Yoginder (Paul) Chugh, Professor Emeritus, Southern Illinois University; and Graham E. Trusler, Founding Partner and CEO of Digby Wells Environmental. The speakers will discuss Canada, China, and India, as well as South Africa, respectively.
