Many industrial and personal activities result in the emission of compounds containing sulphur and nitrogen, which when deposited to terrestrial and aquatic systems may result in acidification of the recipient systems. Production and refining of oil and natural gas, coal- and natural gas-fired utility generation, transportation, agricultural operations, and other industrial and personal activities lead to the emission of compounds containing sulphur and nitrogen, the primary causes of acid deposition and environmental acidification. All of these activities are present in the Province of Alberta, along with ecosystems which are known or suspected to be sensitive to acid deposition.
Changes in the chemical properties of the soil or water occur when acid deposition exceeds the buffering capacity of the receiving system. Such chemical changes may modify the cycling of chemicals and nutrients within the system, the biological composition of the system, and the overall ability of the system to function. These changes may be subtle or dramatic within the affected area.

The Activities Designation Regulation (Alberta Regulation 211/96) under the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act (EPEA) requires that the defined types of plants obtain an approval for construction, operation, or reclamation. The purpose of this guide is to assist companies or their agents in preparing applications.
EPEA was enacted in September, 1993 replaced nine former acts, including both the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act. The procedures for obtaining approvals under EPEA are significantly different than under previous legislation (i.e. Clean Water Act and Clean Air Act). EPEA also has public notification, review and appeal provisions and requirements which must be complied with when seeking a new approval or an amendment/renewal for an energy facility. This guideline has been written to assist companies in preparing applications to construct or operate sour gas processing plants and heavy oil processing plants.
