BC Hydro-Party Response
BC Hydro—Party Response A14/SEM/97-001/05/RSP DISTRIBUTION: General ORIGINAL: English EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On April 2, 1997, the Sierra Legal Defence Fund and the Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund (the "submitters") made a submission under Article 14 of the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC) alleging that the Government of Canada is failing to enforce its environmental law effectively. Specifically, the submission asserts that Canada fails to enforce s.35(1) of the Fisheries Act and fails to utilize its powers pursuant to s.119.06 of the National Energy Board Act to protect fish and fish habitat from damage caused by hydroelectric power generation in British Columbia by BC Hydro (BCH), a provincial Crown corporation. CANADA'S POSITION Canada supports the NAAEC process for submissions on enforcement matters, and considers Articles 14 and 15 to be among the most important provisions of the treaty. Canada submits that it is enforcing its environmental laws, and is in full compliance with its obligations under the NAAEC. Therefore, Canada submits that, in this instance, the development of a factual record is unwarranted as: · the assertions concerning the enforcement of the Fisheries Act are the subject of pending judicial or administrative proceedings within the meaning of Article 14(3)(a); · Canada is fully enforcing the environmental provisions of the Fisheries Act, and the National Energy Board (NEB) has properly exercised its power under the National Energy Board Act; · the provisions of the NAAEC cannot be applied retroactively to assertions of a failure to effectively enforce environmental laws prior to the coming into force of the NAAEC on January 1, 1994. -
