Used by topics

001Who would approve pipelines, mines, major projects, and environmental assessments — and would approvals actually get faster?Current sources show separate federal and Alberta baselines for impact assessment, environmental assessment, and energy regulation; independence would require explicit rules for project approvals, enforcement, consultation, equivalency, and recognition by other governments and markets.

Referenced claims

001environmental-assessment-pipeline-approvalsAlberta has a real provincial project-approval base because it already has an environmental-assessment process, provincial environmental legislation, the Alberta Energy Regulator, and the Responsible Energy Development Act.

002environmental-assessment-pipeline-approvalsThe strongest pro-independence case is that Alberta could use its existing assessment and AER systems to build a more integrated single-window process for Alberta-controlled projects, if it also legislated continuity, consultation, environmental safeguards, appeals, staffing, and recognition arrangements.
