P-REX is a project
undertaken by the Center for Technology and Environment, Department
of Landscape Architecture, Harvard University Graduate School of Design. Under the
direction of Alan Berger, P-REX partners with like-minded
groups to implement its multidisciplinary research program.
Partner institutions include, municipalities, state and federal
agencies, universities, foundations, and corporations involved
in design, engineering and environmental services, mining, property
development, and manufacturing. With our partners we leverage
our combined expertise and resources to achieve both shared
and respective objectives. The motivation for P-REX is
the recognition that domestic and international natural resource
extraction and development will rapidly increase over the next
millennium as industrial production and consumption globalizes.
Few places outside of North America, the European Union and
Australia have fully developed standards and programs for reclaiming
mined lands. P-REX will become the epicenter for global
leadership on reclamation issues regarding design/reuse of post-mined
landscapes.
