  1. An Introduction to the Natural Resource Road Act December 2011 1

  2. Objectives • Raise awareness of the project. • Discuss what we hope to achieve. • Identify opportunities for staff and involvement of interested parties. 2

  3. Project Components THE PROJECT: THE PRODUCTS: • Principles • Legislation: • Keeping us on course • Act • Regulations • Issues & • Policy & Processes Opportunities • • Tools The drivers • Policy Framework • templates and information • the solutions that will management be reflected in the products • Business Design 3

  4. Key Messages • This is not “Bill 30 2008 revisited.” • Government is expecting us to deliver a new Bill in the fall of 2012. • Interested party involvement is critical and ongoing. • The goal is to create a better regime that is fairer, more consistent, more efficient, and more effective). 4

  5. NRRA Goals • More efficient business environment. • Fairness for those sharing the land base. • Maintain or enhance competitive advantage. • Maintain environmental standards. • Safety provisions focused where the decisions are made. 5

  6. Sample of Key Policy Challenges • Scope of Roads (what is to be covered?) • Safety framework (rules of the road, liability, training). • Cost sharing (who, what and when?) • Dispute resolution. • Rights and obligations on multiple user roads • Information sharing, management and access • Balancing certainty for clients with flexibility for government. • Stabilization driven by Access Management • Ownership of Bridges • Government Resource Roads • Public Watchdog 6

  7. Sample of Key Policy Challenges • Enhancing (and sharing costs of ) control of invasive plants (Ranching ) • Equalizing Road Planning Requirements (Forest Majors) • Access over and through private land (Mineral Exploration and Woodlot) • Maintenance of high public/community dependent road roads (rural communities and residences) • Re-establishment of pre-existing access post industrial operations (Ranching) 7

  8. Sample of Key Policy Challenges • Continuing the one stop shop function of Oil and Gas Commission (Oil and Gas sector) • Use of qualified professionals (Joint Practices Board) • Govt decision-maker considerations (e.g. cumulative effects, conflicting activities) (Govt) • Gaps in Information (FPB, Govt, road users) • Temporal road & trail management for recreational use in periods of no industrial activity (non- commercial recreation sector) • Access Management to achieve resource management & economic objectives (everyone) 8

  11. About the Project • Natural resource roads are important to all British Columbians. – Of the estimated 450,000 km of resource roads, 58,000 are Forest Service Roads, close to 200,000 are permit/licence roads and the balance are orphan or „non - status‟ roads. – Government supports improved management of resource roads. – This project is a joint effort of the natural resource sector ministries and agencies. – Engagement with interested parties is key to ensuring a successful outcome. 11

  12. Why a New Act? • Many resource roads serve multiple sectors and are used commercially and by the general public. • Current legislation is largely single sector based (e.g. Forest Act, Mineral Tenure Act, Land Act, Oil and Gas Activities Act ), each with unique processes, rights and obligations. This creates barriers to efficient road management and use. • Safety, given all that variation, is hard to achieve. • An opportunity to bring consistency to resource road law. So everyone knows what to expect and what is expected of them, anywhere in B.C. 12

  13. Feedback on Bill 30 (2008) • Reaction varied from conditional support to some anxiety. • Benefits were acknowledged, along with concerns, primarily: • Bill 30 introduced before the policy work was completed. • Existing access rights might be compromised. • Several outstanding issues would continue to be unresolved. 13

  14. What‟s Different This Time? • Commitment to have policy work completed before a Bill is introduced. • All issues on the table. • All options are being considered. • Principles in place to guide policy. • Interested Party input is acknowledged as critical. 14

  15. Interested Party Input • Phase 1: Awareness, initial feedback regarding proposed policy framework and related issues (October 17 - December 15, 2011, broad audience). • Phase 2: Themed issue analysis and option development (December 2011 to June 2012 via working groups of government and non- government). • Phase 3: Proofing of draft legislation and regulations (April 2012 to April 2013 via a government and non-government team of 6-8 persons). 15

  16. Project Principles • Alignment with government‟s desire for integrated decision-making and administrative streamlining. • Predictable, fair and consistent. • Due consideration for the environment. • Rights to “use” balanced with authority to “control.” • Concept of “intended use” applies to construction and maintenance obligations. 16

  17. Project Principles • Recognition that all roads require some level of maintenance, at a minimum, to mitigate environmental risks. • Ensure resource roads offer safe opportunity to all users and ensure safety responsibilities are commensurate with authority. • One administrative regime for all resource roads. 17

  18. “Straw Dog” Policy Framework • To begin the conversation the project team has proposed a number of ideas for interested parties to consider and respond to. These ideas are discussed at a high level in the Discussion Paper posted to the project website. • Together, they are intended to provide a framework to overcome issues while remaining consistent with the project principles and goals. • When posing solutions, always ask yourself the question: what will it take to make it work? 18

  19. Phase Two: Offering Solutions • The transition from identification of issues to development of possible solutions had occurred. • The decision-makers in government must have a fair and balanced assessment of each option put before them. • The assessment must examine each solution from the point of view of builders, maintainers, users and govt. • It must also consider the many use circumstances that commonly occur. 19

  20. Common Road Use Circumstances 20

  21. The Policy Framework Ideas SCOPE OF THE NRRA • Applies to roads utilized by motor vehicles on Crown land and any third-party roads or road use on private land that is authorized by government. • Does not apply to: • Public roads (highway, municipal, federal). • Private roads on private land. • Roads within a controlled mine site. 21

  22. The Policy Framework Ideas CONTRIBUTING TO MAINTENANCE • Under which circumstances should a user be expected to contribute to maintenance? • The Act will confirm the thresholds of use that trigger this obligation and will provide mechanisms in the event agreement cannot be reached by the parties. • The Act will also define that activities to be cost shared. 22

  23. The Policy Framework Ideas • Rights and obligations determined by the road use objectives of: • Builders. • Users. • Government. 23

  24. The Policy Framework Ideas INTENDED USE • Design, build and maintain roads for intended use while providing for protection of the environment and user safety. Example: Skid road built for timber harvesting, not automobiles. 24

  25. The Policy Framework OPEN ROADS • Roads if open are open to the public (everyone) except as required to meet government land use objectives, protect the road, the environment or the safety of road users. • Anyone using a Many resource roads are used resource road will be by industries, commercial responsible for damage operators and the public. The NRRA will confirm the right to they cause to the road. use, but also the obligations that fairly accompany that use. 25

  26. The Policy Framework Ideas SAFETY • A safety regime that applies to all resource roads and users, consistent in many respects to the Motor Vehicle Act and Off Road Vehicle Management Framework. • Appropriate definition of worksite and duty of prime contractor. 26

  27. The Policy Framework Ideas USE AT YOUR OWN RISK • To encourage maintainers and government to keep more roads open, we will be taking steps to limit third party liability to acts of Road washout as the result of a plugged culvert. misfeasance. 27
