Regulatory Information Management System
in support of the Mackenzie Gas Project
February 3, 2010
Background Agreement for Coordination of the Regulatory Review of the Mackenzie Gas
Project
Background cont’d
Process Mapping Exercise◦ 2yr exercise to formalize and standardize process maps for 70? anticipated MGP
regulatory approval types ◦ MVLWB LUP and WL application process maps were approved by full Board
MVLWB Pilot Project $120,000 INAC funding to develop pilot system for processing of MVLWB LUP and WL
applications, as our electronic systems were among the most complete (Terriplan Consultants as contractor)
$45k additional funding mostly used Rob expects $50k more required for polished product
NWT Water Board Leveraged investments made in MVLWB pilot program, customized to their own needs Actively testing
WLWB – Online Commenting component Leveraged investments in MV and NWTWB systems to customize an Online Commenting
component (Live Comment Summary Table) Testing mock live reviews Providing input / testing into additional components along with MVLWB
Background cont’d
Conceived as a one-window onlineregulatory information management system housed by NGPS for all MGP-relatedauthorizations
This main goal has been mainly abandoned in favor of standalone systems customized to the specific procedural requirements of each organization.

Key Features of Final MVLWB Project Online Application forms (LUP and WL)Upload of supporting documentsTracks application through process mapAutomated email notificationsContact / Distribution List managementUser management / securityOnline reviews (live comment summary table)MVLWB registry integration (loose)
MVLWB Design Considerations
Integrate with MVLWB work processesIntegrate with MVLWB online registryExtendable outside of MGP context and
outside of application process only◦ ( post approval processes )
Integrate with other agencies (may not be feasible given standalone nature of systems)
Policy and Procedural ImplicationsSubmissionsapps, plans, reports
- Online, forms-based applications- Registry Integration- Data collection
Application Processing
- Tied to Board-approved MGP process map - Registry integration- Completeness check/ info requests- Transboundary process
Distributionapps, plans, reports
- Contacts/ distribution list maintenance- Automated, email-based
Review Process - Real-time online review / response
other - Post-approval processes- Support - contracted
Rob’s Review
Polished product is probably $50,000 awayBe aware of policy and procedure implications In-house system guarantees continuity post MGP but
makes inter-agency coordination an issueBe aware of ongoing support and maintenance costs
(system must be maintained by outside contract)System does not offer much new information vs the online
registry. What it can offer, if well designed, is important procedural efficiencies and consistencies (in application, distribution and review processes). If poorly designed, we will complicate procedures for staff and outside users.
Has been a driver for other MVLWB goals (email distributions, document uploads, live commenting)
Potential integration with Water Withdrawals db
