To answer your question, the area beyond the one nautical mile buffer zone is under the authority of the Offshore Petroleum Board. The area is administered and managed, as it has been for 25 years, under the accord implementation acts. It is possible that companies can bring to the board requests to follow their process to secure the rights to explore, develop, whatever, but as per the board's policy.
When it comes to Sable Island National Park Reserve and the activities beyond, it's like any other national park or national park reserve in Canada. There are activities going on outside of these national parks and national park reserves, be it logging, mining, or other activities. Parks Canada does not have an ability to control them. We administer the national park itself.
When it comes to decisions on areas outside of that, we get involved in the process that the responsible authorities have put in place. If there is a proposal for something beyond the boundaries of Sable Island National Park Reserve that is conducted by the Offshore Petroleum Board, we would seek to bring to the attention of these reviews our knowledge and expertise of Sable Island National Park Reserve, its natural and cultural features, and its importance.
