Executive Summary
Preliminary Decision Support Tools (DST) were presented at a working session in December 2019 to facilitate a discussion involving industry (oil and gas and environmental practitioners) and government (Alberta Environment and Parks [AEP] and Alberta Energy Regulator [AER]) related to change in land use requests. Subsequently, a draft decision framework incorporating recommended revisions to the Decision Support Tools was prepared and released by PTAC – Certification of Mineral Soil Pads in the Boreal Region – Decision Framework and Support Tools. This report presents the results of a stakeholder review of the draft Certification of Mineral Soil Pads in the Boreal Region – Decision Framework and Support Tools report and a field verification trial by practitioners.
