Bulletins

Bulletins are announcements to inform the energy industry and the public of an ERCB activity, such as a consultation, new regulatory requirements, a new program, or electronic submission of data. Bulletins may announce but do not set out ERCB requirements. ERCB requirements are detailed in Acts and Regulations, Directives, Informational Letters, and Interim Directives. As of January 1, 2008 EUB Bulletins become ERCB Bulletins.

This page will provide access one full year plus the current year of Bulletins. Older Bulletins are archived. They can be accessed through the "Archive" link in the right hand column or can be obtained through the ERCB's Information Services Group.

Contact information and phone numbers published in older bulletins may be outdated. Please contact our Customer Contact Centre and they will assist you.  Phone: 403-297-8311 and press ' 0 ', toll free 1-855-297-8311, or E-mail: Inquiries@ercb.ca
