Regulatory oversight
Regulations
• Promote safety, environmental protection and economic efficiency
• Designed to protect against the potential negative impacts of energy
development but enable benefits of energy supply, security and
economic development.
Federal regulators
• Responsible for pipelines that cross provincial or national borders
• The National Energy Board regulates the construction and operation,
tolls and tariffs of interprovincial and international pipelines.
Provincial regulators
• Most provinces and territories have energy regulatory bodies with
specific mandates and responsibilities for their jurisdiction.
• Both federal and provincial regulators work with numerous provincial
and federal agencies.
