Alberta Energy Regulator Fines Company $456K for Providing Misleading, False Information
- The Alberta Energy Regulator imposed a $456,000 penalty on CEPro Energy and Environmental Services after determining that the company provided inaccurate or deceptive details in its 2023 reclamation approval applications.
- The $75,000 fine addresses 150 distinct violations and stems from CEPro's failure to submit necessary information for reclamation certificate applications in 2020, with the regulator noting it has been unable to reach CEPro representatives for almost two years.
- CEPro submitted five incomplete applications, of which two contained false or misleading details, and the regulator is responsible for approving land reclamation work that returns land to equivalent use.
- The regulator indicated that submitting inaccurate or deceptive data hinders the AER’s ability to confirm proper land reclamation, which raises the possibility that polluted soil, leftover contaminants, or inadequately restored areas might remain unnoticed.
- While possible adverse effects are unknown in this case and classified as minor to none, the fine highlights risks to regulatory oversight and environmental protection services in Alberta.
