- Conditions
- SUMMARY OF CONDITIONS AND COMMITMENTS Conditions generally are requirements in addition to or otherwise expanding upon existing regulations and guidelines. An applicant must comply with conditions or it is in breach of its approval and subject to enforcement action by the AER. Enforcement of an approval includes enforcement of the conditions attached to that licence. Sanctions imposed for the breach of such conditions may include the suspension of the approval, resulting in the shut-in of a facility. The conditions imposed on the licence are summarized below. Undertakings, promises, and commitments (collectively referred to as commitments) to parties involving activities or operations that are not strictly required under AER requirements. These commitments are separate arrangements between the parties and do not constitute conditions of the AER’s approval of the applications. The commitments that have been given some weight by the AER are summarized below. The AER expects the applicant to comply with commitments made to all parties. However, while the AER has considered these commitments in arriving at its decision, the AER cannot enforce them. If the applicant does not comply with commitments made, affected parties may request a review of the original approval. At that time, the AER will assess whether the circumstances regarding any failed commitment warrant a review of the original approval.
- COMMITMENTS BY TECK Teck committed to providing FCM with Directive 056 notification at the same time it provides notification to other Fort Chipewyan-based First Nations in the future.
