Invitation for Feedback on Revisions to Directive 067

Initiative: 
Directive 067: Eligibility Requirements for Acquiring and Holding Energy Licences and Approvals
Deadline: 
14 Feb 2021

From AER Bulletin 2021-01:

We are seeking feedback on a new edition of Directive 067: Eligibility Requirements for Acquiring and Holding Energy Licences and Approvals. The proposed changes include requiring additional information, particularly financial information, at the time of application and throughout the life cycle to enable us to 

  • assess licensee eligibility,
  • assess the capabilities of licensees and approval holders to meet their regulatory and liability obligations throughout the energy development life cycle,
  • administer our liability management programs, and 
  • ensure the safe, orderly, and environmentally responsible development of energy resources in Alberta throughout their life cycle.

These changes support the Government of Alberta’s new Liability Management Framework and are enabled by rule changes announced in our Bulletin 2020-26.

Read an analysis of the proposed changes on ABlawg.
