7(1) Following the end of a year, each company must file information

Allocating fractionation credits

8(1) Fractionation credits established under this Regulation may be

section against the payment of royalty

or royalty compensation owing to the Crown in right of Alberta under

the Natural Gas Royalty Regulation, 2002 (AR 220/2002).

(2) A company shall show in information filed under

section 7 or as amended under subsection (3).

Records

9(1) Subject to subsection (2), a company shall keep all records that

b) that relate to a tagged ethane source, until the expiry of the

5-year period following the end of the term of the tagged

ethane source in accordance with

section 5(3),

(

period following the final year in which a fractionation credit

in relation to the eligible ethane is established by the Minister

under

section 7(3), and

(

d) that are otherwise requested by the Minister, until the date or

the expiry of the period of time specified by the Minister.

(2) If the Minister is of the opinion that it is necessary for the

personally, require any person required to keep records under

subsection (1) to keep the records referred to in that subsection for any

longer period specified in the direction.

(3) A person required to keep records pursuant to this

section shall, on

the request of the Minister, submit to the Minister within the time

specified by the Minister any information or record the Minister

requires.

Artificial transactions and non-compliance

10(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Regulation, if the

Minister is of the opinion that

(

a) one or more acts, agreements, arrangements, transactions or

operations were effected, whether before or after the coming

into force of this Regulation, for the purpose of improperly,

artificially or unduly obtaining or increasing the amount of

any fractionation credit, or

specified under

section 5(2)(c), any provision of this

Regulation or any provision of the Mines and Minerals Act in

relation to this Regulation,

the Minister may take any or all of the actions specified in subsection

(2).

(2) In the circumstances set out in subsection (1), the Minister may

take action as follows:

(

a) revoke the whole or any part of tagged incremental ethane

consumption for a company;

(

b) determine that all of the fractionation credits established or

allocated should not have been established or allocated;

(

c) determine that the amount of fractionation credits established

or allocated was improperly, artificially or unduly increased

and is to be reduced accordingly.

(3) If the Minister makes a determination under subsection (2), a

person in whose favour fractionation credits have been allocated is not

entitled to the fractionation credits or to the amount by which the

amount of fractionation credits is or was improperly, artificially or

unduly increased, as the case may be, and the Minister may recalculate

the royalty otherwise reduced by virtue of those fractionation credits,

disregarding those credits in doing so.

Indemnity

11 If the Minister has tagged a new ethane source under

section 5 or

has established fractionation credits under

section 7(3), the company

for which the new ethane source has been tagged or the fractionation

credit has been established, as the case may be, shall indemnify and

hold harmless the Government of Alberta against all third party claims,

demands, actions or costs, including legal costs on a solicitor-client

basis, related to, occasioned by or attributable to the company and

arising from any matter in relation to this Regulation, including

(

a) the establishing of an industry ethane consumption baseline,

(

b) the tagging of new ethane sources, and

(

c) the establishing and allocating of fractionation credits.

Expiry

12 For the purpose of ensuring that this Regulation is reviewed for

ongoing relevancy and necessity, with the option that it may be

repassed in its present or an amended form following a review, this

Regulation expires on November 30, 2017.
