Alberta moves to a centralized approval system for ILO projects by next year through the Natural Resources Conservation Board. NRCB chair Brian Bietz says the board will override municipal by laws, aiming for consistent decisions while balancing industry, environment, and nearby residents concerns. Six approval officers and six inspectors will process 175 to 225 applications annually across four offices.
