JACK WINCH EARLY CAREER AWARD Nomination Deadline: August 30, 2021 This award honours Dr. Jack Winch principal founder and inaugural President of the Canadian Land Reclamation Association/Association Canadienne de Réhabilitation des Sites Dégradés (CLRA/ACRSD). Jack served a critical role in the direction of the land reclamation community, acknowledging the need for a professional organization to support the burgeoning, multidisciplinary field. In 1970, he was instrumental to the formation of the Ontario Cover Crops Committee. Recognizing that the land reclamation community would be better served by a formal organization, the Canadian Land Reclamation Association was established in 1975. Jack was elected President, a role in which he would serve for a three-year term. During his tenure, Jack’s leadership and direction were instrumental to the development of the CLRA, including its mandate and membership, and to the establishment of the annual meeting and reclamation-focused periodical, “Canadian Reclamation”. Since that time, the CLRA has continued to grow, having five Chapters across Canada, and members representing government, industry and academia, from across Canada and around the world. The award acknowledges the efforts of Early Career Reclamation Professionals. The award is presented annually at the CLRA National Conference to an individual in recognition of their outstanding contribution to reclamation research and practice.

The last couple years have been challenging professionally and personally for us all but we are looking forward to looking back; sharing stories and experiences from years past and how we have grown as an association and industry here in Atlantic Canada. Our AGM in April was a huge success and we welcome two new board members to the team as we bid farewell to two who will be greatly missed. We are looking forward to having new perspectives and fresh ideas for how to move forward and come through this pandemic stronger than ever. As vaccination rates rise we look forward to hosting in person events next year and some fresh and interesting virtual content in 2021.  Abby van der Jagt President, CLRA Atlantic Chapter READ MORE     CANADIAN RECLMATION: CALL FOR ARTICLES Canadian Reclamation is an official publication of the Canadian Land Reclamation Association/Association canadienne de réhabilitation des sites dégradés.
