Deerland Stakeholder Involvement

MAXIM believes that public involvement goes beyond merely informing people of plans. MAXIM plans to provide stakeholders and the public with an opportunity for open communication and dialogue, which should result in thoroughly informed decisions and a plant development that reflects the values of interested and affected parties. MAXIM will consult with and listen to directly-affected and interested stakeholders before submitting applications to the Alberta Energy & Utilities Board (EUB) and Alberta Environment (AENV). MAXIM will respond to all concerns, questions and requests for additional information, indicating what action has been or will be taken, if required, addressing any identified concerns.

How do I participate?

MAXIM is committed to a thorough consultation process which provides numerous opportunities for you to learn more about the project and share your views with us. You are encouraged to share your ideas and ask questions during our open house or in writing so your needs can be investigated and addressed. You may also make submissions directly to the EUB.

We have planned numerous opportunities for participation including:

  1. Personal consultation for any interested stakeholder.
    Landowners and residents within a 2 km radius of the proposed site will receive a personal visit from project representatives who will share project information and discuss any questions or concerns you may have.
  2. Expanded notification and consultation.
    Landowners and residents between 2km and 3km of the proposed facility will receive a consultation package in the mail and personal visits are extended to all interested parties requesting such a visit.
  3. Open House.
    MAXIM will be hosting an open house during which area residents can find out more about the project and discuss their views directly with project representatives.
  4. Public Consultation Line.
    Our public consultation team would be happy to answer questions or to find the answers you need. If your issue is complicated, they can put you in contact with someone who can address it.

As the project advances we will undertake on-going consultation to provide additional information related to the project and address any additional community and stakeholder concerns. MAXIM will continue with a personal one-on-one program with directly-impacted stakeholders throughout the life of the project. This will ensure that local community issues and concerns are addressed in project planning and operations.
