Regulatory Framework Survey

This short survey is used to gather input from external parties impacted by the CER Regulatory Framework. The five questions below help us assess the overall effectiveness of the Regulatory Framework.

The CER Regulatory Framework provides the structure around which all of our activities take place. It includes the system of laws, regulatory documents and guidance we use to regulate. At the center of the Regulatory Framework is the Canadian Energy Regulator Act (CER Act), the statute that created the CER, and other acts that give us our powers and set-out our responsibilities (e.g., the Canada Oil and Gas Operations Act).

The CER is responsible for regulating the full lifecycle of international and interprovincial pipelines, international and designated interprovincial power lines and offshore renewable energy projects; import and export of certain energy products; oil and gas exploration and production in the offshore and frontier lands; and monitoring aspects of energy markets.
