Scott Laberge

Scott has six years of experience with projects involving mine-closure planning and design, tailings management; geotechnical and environmental site investigations; in-situ monitoring with geotechnical and environmental instrumentation; saturated, unsaturated, and critical-state soil mechanics; geotechnical modelling; mine operations; and containment structures. He works on projects for clients in the coal, potash, metals, and oil sands sectors in Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and the Maritimes. 

Scott devotes a significant portion of his work to advancing tailings-management technology and leading closure and reclamation planning for operating and legacy mine sites. His experience includes preparing detailed decommissioning and closure plans for a coal mine in Alberta, orchestrating multidiscipline technical teams for the engineering and design of a tailings-storage-facility reclamation in Eastern Canada, and supporting and directing cover-options studies and alternatives assessments to inform closure planning for a site in northern Canada.
