The order requires the payment of abandonment costs plus a 25 per cent penalty for a well licensed to Dalhousie, located at Legal Subdivision 4 of Section 18, Township 20, Range 2, West of the 5 th Meridian. Dalhousie has asked that the Board conduct a review hearing related to ACO 2008-1, pursuant to Section 40 of the Energy Resources Conservation Act, and the Board has granted the request.

The purpose of the review hearing is to determine whether the Board should confirm, vary, or rescind its decision to issue ACO 2008-1.
