"The assimilative capacity of the Athabasca River has been defined as the ability of the river to respond to effluent loading and still maintain its productivity and diversity. In order to estimate the assimilative capacity, it is necessary to understand the processes of degradation, the amounts and types of effluent which reach the river, and seasonal effects. In order to do this, a working conceptual model of the river must be established and built up to the point where predictions of the effects of effluent loading can be made"--Executive summary.
