The National Energy Board's vision is to be an active, effective and knowledgeable partner in the responsible development of Canada's energy sector for the benefit of Canadians. The NEB's purpose is to promote safety and security, environmental protection and efficient energy infrastructure and markets in the Canadian public interest within the mandate set by Parliament in the regulation of pipelines, energy development and trade.
The National Energy Board is committed to ensuring that stakeholders are effectively engaged in the Board's public processes. These processes are designed so that decision makers are presented with the complete range of views required to make fully-informed decisions in the Canadian public interest.
The National Energy Board is an independent federal agency established to regulate international and interprovincial aspects of the oil, gas and electric utility industries.
