Alberta Watercourse Crossing Guidebook

The Alberta Watercourse Crossing Collaborative (AWC3) has created a Guidebook to empower those involved in all aspects of watercourse crossing projects. The guidebook aims to empower practitioners with an understanding of the who, what, where and why of watercourse crossing projects.
