Funding to support the review of the Onshore Pipeline Regulations
About the Onshore Pipeline Regulations Review
The CER is conducting a review of the Onshore Pipeline Regulations (OPR), which are the main regulations we use to oversee pipelines in Canada. The CER’s objective for this review is to deliver a regulation that supports the highest level of safety, security and environmental protection, advances Reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, addresses transparency and inclusive participation, provides for predictable and timely oversight and encourages innovation. The CER is committed to advancing Reconciliation, and is seeking input from Indigenous peoples based on their unique cultures, knowledge and histories.
