The Mine Environment Neutral Drainage (MEND)
program is a major seven-year Canadian collaborative initiative between the
mining industry and government. The program vastly improved research and
development efforts related to the application of technologies and management
practices for the prevention, treatment and control of ARD. SENES was a key
contributor to these efforts through the development of several reports
illustrating fundamental research and state-of-the-art practices in this
area.
