    Alberta to Better Integrate Oil and Gas Policy and Regulatory System Regulatory Enhancement Task Force Delivers Report to Government

    January 28, 2011 Alberta to better integrate oil and gas policy and regulatory system Regulatory Enhancement Task Force delivers report to government Calgary... Coordinated policy development and an integrated regulatory system for upstream oil and gas highlight a report from the task force established to review Alberta’s regulatory system. “I would like to thank Diana McQueen, Cal Dallas, and Evan Berger for their excellent work,” said Energy Minister Ron Liepert. “Government has accepted the report. The recommendations will now be immediately taken through the appropriate government review process for implementation. Legislation will be introduced this spring to begin implementation of the task force report.” The task force report and recommendations include: Establishing a new Policy Management Office and ensuring integration of natural resource policies; Creating a single oil and gas regulatory body; Providing clear public engagement processes; Using a common approach to risk assessment and management; Adopting performance measures to enable continuous system improvement; and Creating a mechanism to help resolve disputes between landowners and companies, and enforce agreements where required. “To maintain Alberta’s competitiveness the regulatory system must be effective, efficient, adaptable, predictable, fair and transparent,” said task force chair, Parliamentary Assistant for Energy Diana McQueen. “We will not compromise our responsibilities to environmental stewardship and the protection of public safety and public interests.” The review included analyses of all processes in place to develop and ensure compliance with provincial policies around upstream oil and gas development, and extensive engagement of First Nations, the oil and gas industry, and individuals from landowner, municipal, and environmental groups. Between March 31 and October 1, 2010 the task force hosted three rounds of engagement through a series of briefings, meetings, workshops and a forum.
