加拿大新项目办公室无法绕过西海岸油轮禁令; 管道审查需要4至5个月时间, 艾伯塔要求改变规则。 Canada’s new projects office can’t bypass West Coast tanker ban; pipeline reviews take 4–5 months, Alberta seeks rule changes.

加拿大新的主要项目办公室负责人Dawn Farrell告诉议员们,该办公室不能自动绕过西岸油轮禁令,因为它没有被列入《建设加拿大法》附表2,该表规定了快速审批程序。 Dawn Farrell, head of Canada’s new Major Projects Office, told MPs that the office cannot automatically bypass the West Coast tanker ban, as it’s not listed in Schedule 2 of the Build Canada Act, which governs fast-tracked approvals. 她确认500个项目正在等待审查,9个项目正在评估之中,估计对管道的审查将需要4至5个月。 She confirmed 500 projects are awaiting review, with nine under assessment, and estimated pipeline reviews would take four to five months. 艾伯塔总理试图在春季之前提交新的输油管,但这取决于联邦对包括石油和天然气排放上限在内的环境规则的修改,尽管渥太华没有承诺要取消这一规定。 Alberta’s premier seeks to submit a new pipeline by spring, contingent on federal changes to environmental rules, including the oil and gas emissions cap, though Ottawa has not committed to repealing it. 官员说,与艾伯塔省的对话仍在进行,但没有作出任何承诺。 Officials say talks with Alberta are ongoing, but no promises have been made.
