As a rule, we ask the members of a review panel, in our guidelines, to review the mitigation measures that are realistic. We are less interested in someone who thinks that they can invent a technology to clean the oil sands when no one has ever done that.
We defer to the review panel’s expertise. That’s all we say. We don’t ask if it’s feasible, if it’s expensive or not. We don’t impose any such criterion. We tell them to examine mitigation measures that are realistic, in the sense that we know that it has already been done and that it can be done again. We don’t want to do research for the next 20 years to figure out if it can be done. That’s what we say.
