This public registry page has been created by the C-NLOPB for the posting of documents related to Equinor Canada Ltd.’s (formerly Statoil Canada Ltd.) Bay du Nord Development Project in the Flemish Pass Basin area. The Responsible Authority (RA) for the project is the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC) so comments on documents available for public comment should be sent to:

Bay du Nord Development Project
