National Energy Board : ウィキペディア英語版 | National Energy Board The National Energy Board (French: ''Office national de l'énergie'') is an independent economic regulatory agency created in 1959 by the Government of Canada to oversee "international and inter-provincial aspects of the oil, gas and electric utility industries". Its head office is located in Calgary, Alberta. The NEB mainly regulates the construction and operation of oil and natural gas pipelines crossing provincial or international borders. The Board approves pipeline traffic, tolls and tariffs under the authority of the ''National Energy Board Act''. It deals with approximately 750 applications annually, through written or oral proceedings. The National Energy Board also has jurisdiction over the construction and operation of international power lines, defined as lines built "for the purpose of transmitting electricity from or to a place in Canada from or to a place outside of Canada". The Board also delivers permits and licences to sell electricity generated in Canada in the United States. The NEB also has jurisdiction over designated inter-provincial power lines, by determination of the federal Cabinet, but no such line has been designated, leaving the regulation of existing interties to provincial regulatory bodies. Recent NEB decisions in favour of petroleum-industry interests have led to increasing controversy. == Pending review ==
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (elected in the Canadian federal election, 2015) has strongly condemned the Harper-era process of regulation, and especially the NEB, citing serious conflict of interest and mandate flaws.〔http://www.torontosun.com/2015/06/29/liberals-would-bolster-national-energy-board-reviews-trudeau〕
