The Surface Rights Board
The Surface Rights Board is a quasi-judicial board
established under
The Surface Rights Act. The primary function of
the board is to arbitrate disputes relating to right
of entry or compensation for surface rights used by
holders of
oil and gas rights. The board also
provides mediation services between surface owners,
occupants and
oil and gas rights holders on a
voluntary basis.
The board is an independent, impartial body
responsible for hearing all sides and, from the
evidence, making decisions within the framework of
The Act.
The Surface Rights Act and the board are
administered under the Mineral Resources Division of
Manitoba Industry, Economic Development and Mines.
The
Petroleum Branch of Manitoba Industry, Economic
Development and Mines is responsible for
administration of
The Oil and Gas Act. The Oil and
Gas Act regulates all aspects of exploration for and
development of Manitoba's oil and gas resources.
