  • Restrictions on Seismic Cut Lines and Cash Bonus Bidding. These Discussions with Canada Have Not Pro Gressed
    restrictions on seismic cut lines and cash bonus bidding. These discussions with Canada have not pro gressed. On February 16, 2009, the Grand Chief received a letter from INAC which threatens to terminate the IRDA, along with the annual royalty payouts to the DFN, if there is no agreement by September 2009 to allow a new cycle of petroleum exploration. If agreement cannot be reached with Canada on terms and conditions for new exploration licenses the DFN may consider moving on their own to initiate a competitive bidding process to determine appropri ate terms and conditions for new exploration. In April. 2009 the Leadership passed a resolution calling for a renewed effort by both the DFN and Can ada to find agreement on terms and conditions for a new petroleum exploration cycle. DFN representa tives then held a meeting with INAC officials in September. 2009. At that meeting we confirmed that: • the DFN remain committed to the objective of having a new petroleum exploration rights issu ance cycle as soon as possible: • as set out in the IRDA, in order to meet this objective it is necessary for INAC and the DFN to jointly develop terms and conditions for the right issuance: and • DFN remain committed to working in good faith to find common ground on terms and condi tions. We also asked INAC to provide us with a written response to DFN concerns regarding: - exploration parcel sizes: - air and water emission standards: and - restrictions on seismic cut lines. Following the September. 2009 meeting the Grand Chief wrote to Minister Strahl confirming that the DFN are prepared to hold discussions on terms and conditions for new exploration.
