  • Pipeline Authority Annual Report 2018
    North Dakota Pipeline Authority Annual Report July 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018 Industrial Commission of North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, Chairman Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring North Dakota Pipeline Authority Annual Report July 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018 Overview At the request of the North Dakota Industrial Commission, the Sixtieth Legislature passed House Bill 1128 authorizing the North Dakota Pipeline Authority. It was signed into law on April 11, 2007. The statutory mission of the Pipeline Authority is “to diversify and expand the North Dakota economy by facilitating development of pipeline facilities to support the production, transportation, and utilization of North Dakota energy-related commodities, thereby increasing employment, stimulating economic activity, augmenting sources of tax revenue, fostering economic stability and improving the State’s economy”. As established by the Legislature, the Pipeline Authority is a builder of last resort, meaning private business would have the first opportunity to invest in and/or build additional needed pipeline infrastructure. By law, the Pipeline Authority membership is comprised of the members of the North Dakota Industrial Commission. Upon the recommendation of the Oil and Gas Research Council, the Industrial Commission authorized the expenditure of up to $325,000 during the 2017-2019 biennium for the Pipeline Authority with funding being made available from the Oil and Gas Research Fund. On August 1, 2008 the Industrial Commission named Justin J. Kringstad, an engineering consultant, to serve as Director of the North Dakota Pipeline Authority. The North Dakota Pipeline Authority Director works closely with Lynn Helms, Department of Mineral Resources Director, Ron Ness, North Dakota Petroleum Council President and Karlene Fine, Industrial Commission Executive Director.

  • File OF-GEN-06 FRR 14 August 2020 To: All Pipeline Companies
    File OF-GEN-06 FRR 14 August 2020 To: All Pipeline Companies regulated under the Canadian Energy Regulator Act Commission of the Canada Energy Regulator (Commission) Pipeline Financial Resources Requirements Update on Approval of Financial Resources Plans Background Subsection 138(1) of the Canadian Energy Regulator Act (CER Act) requires pipeline companies to maintain financial resources equal to their absolute liability level. The Pipeline Financial Requirements Regulations (Regulations), which came into force on 11 July 2019, set out absolute liability limits for the non-major oil pipeline companies1 (i.e., all other oil, gas, and commodity pipeline companies). On 29 March 2019, the National Energy Board (NEB) issued the Pipeline Financial Requirements Guidelines (Guidelines). Included in the Guidelines was a schedule for companies to submit their financial resources plans for review and approval. By 16 April 2019, the first Financial Resources Plans from companies with an absolute liability class of Oil Class 2 and 3 were filed with the NEB for review. This was followed by companies with an absolute liability class of Gas Class 1, 2, 3, and 4 filing their Financial Resources Plans. Companies with an absolute liability class of Other Commodity filed their Financial Resources Plans by 11 June 2019. Companies whose Financial Resources Plans were previously approved are listed in Appendix I under the headings “Approved as of” for the following dates: 17 July 2019, 28 August 2019, 18 December 2019, and 3 June 2020. The Commission continues to consider the Financial Resources Plans from Oil, Gas, and Other Commodity companies filed to-date. This letter updates and replaces the Commission’s previous letter dated 3 June 2020.

  • Legal Principles Surrounding the New Canadian and American Arctic Energy Debate
    LEGAL PRINCIPLES SURROUNDING THE NEW CANADIAN AND AMERICAN ARCTIC ENERGY DEBATE Alexander J. Black* "The Arctic trails have their secret tales That would make your blood run cold" ' I. INTRODU~~ION Almost a quarter century ago, great plans were made by Canada and the United States to build a natural gas pipeline from Alaska to the contiguous forty-eight states. However, the project stalled and has only been reinvigorated recently. This article identifies some of the unresolved legal issues surrounding the Alaska Highway gas pipeline project and competing proposals concerning connection to Canada's Mackenzie Delta. My underlying theme is security of supply, a concern that has increased in importance following the act of war by terrorists in New York City on September 11, 2001. These legal issues and business proposals should be reconciled quickly in order to ensure security of supply between Canada and the United States. Both countries share strategic mutual interests. Thus, this article presents a synthesis of the legal issues in an attempt to advance the longstanding comity between our countries through informed and timely decision making. Ultimately, a decision has to be made about the 1977 bilateral international agreement, aimed at transporting natural gas from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska through Canada to the contiguous forty-eight states. The original project was called the Foothills (or Alaska Highway) project by Canadians, while Americans often called it the Alaska Natural Gas Transportation System (ANGTS). That acronym, ANGTS, sounds like 'angst', suggesting that some anxiety might exist about the outcome of this complicated project. Indeed this project has caused its share of angst over the past twenty-five years.
