Welcome to the home page of the
Environmental Appeals Board. The Board is an independent
board that gives Albertans an opportunity to appeal certain decisions made
by Alberta Environment and Water under the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act,
the Water Act, the Climate Change and Emissions Management Act, and
Schedule 5 of the Government Organization Act.
These decisions may include approvals, water licences, preliminary certificates,
reclamation certificates, remediation certificates, administrative penalties,
enforcement orders, and environmental protection orders.
The Board places a high value on its mediation program and encourages participants to use mediation
as the primary way to resolve appeals. Board mediations promote
open and collaborative discussions between the participants and encourages individuals
to come up with their own solutions. Mediation can help with increasing communication,
developing a better understanding of the participants' concerns, and offer
win-win solutions.
This web site will tell you more about the Board and how the appeal process works.
