Project Name

Public Safety and Sour Gas in Alberta: Issues & Regulatory Framework Review

Client
Provincial Advisory Committee on Public Safety and Sour Gas
Project Type
Provincial Government
Timeframe
2000 to 2003

Through public outreach and consultation, the Advisory Committee on Public Safety and Sour Gas examined public health and safety issues associated with sour gas and the regulatory framework that addresses these issues. Based on the review, the Committee provided Alberta Energy and Utilities Board with recommendations to make the regulatory framework more effective.

The Advisory Committee retained Praxis to design, facilitate and support all aspects of the public consultation and outreach process. This multi-phase process included regional discussion sessions in 12 provincial locations; meetings with First Nations and Métis communities and organizations; website development; on-line response forms; a quantitative random sample telephone survey in the regions of the province most affected by sour gas issues; and the development of a “Directions Document”. Phase two of the process focused on public meetings to review the “Directions Document” in ten provincial locations.
