This report was developed through an intensive six month (January to June, 2010) structured process called the Challenge Dialogue System where we addressed the question of “What Constitutes an Adequate and Effective Public Information and Reporting System for Ecosystems in the Oil Sands Region?” This process involved 70 people drawn from industry, government (all levels), NGOs, First Nations, academia and the public. A one-day workshop in June 2010, attended by 25 people from government, industry, NGOs and staff from the four major monitoring programs in the Wood Buffalo Region, further refined the concepts arising from the written feedback. The Principles for an effective information and reporting system are: • Relevant (responsive, addresses key objectives, supports decisions) • Credible (science-based, consistent methodology, standardized reporting, verifiable, independent and objective, collaborative) • Understandable (increases public awareness, causal relations understood) • Transparent (publicly available data, methodology and reports, timely reporting) • Robust (durable, continuously-improving) Two scenarios were developed to provide advice to improving the current information and report system for ecosystem effects in the oil sands region.
