Onshore Pipelines and Filing Manuals (OPR-FM) Workshop
Feb 7, 2025
What: The Canada Energy Regulator (CER) is reviewing the Onshore Pipeline Regulations (OPR) and the Environmental and Socio-Economic Assessment and Lands portion of the Filing Manuals (FM). The CER is considering the lessons learned and feedback from regulated companies, Indigenous Peoples, landowners, and others. The OPR are the main regulations used to oversee pipelines in Canada. The FM explains what the include in an application for a potential project. Visit the CER OPR website for more information.
Purpose: The Line 3 IAMC will be facilitating this workshop to hear your perspective on regulatory issues and options for the CER OPR/FM review.
Background: The Line 3 IAMC created the first ever Indigenous monitoring program which has since worked alongside the Canada Energy Regulator.
New Focus: Our focus is shifting to a longer-term goal: contribute to transforming regulatory systems to secure First Nations and Métis Nation regulatory authority.
Role of the Line 3 IAMC:
- Support and amplify the voices of Rights-Holding Nations, not to hold rights ourselves.
- Collaborate to champion community needs while safeguarding autonomy.
Who: 2 x Individuals per Nation or Region – Leadership, Elders, Youth, Technicians, and Indigenous Monitors are encouraged to attend.
