Industry Liaison Officer's Report

Approximately 135 drill and / or service rigs were moved in 2007.  In addition, there were contractors hauling from seven active gravel pits in the County.  These activities impact County road conditions.

With the co-operation of oil companies, gravel haulers, logging contractors, farmers, and other contractors contacting the County for Road Haul Protection Agreements, the County is able to keep the road damage to a minimum.

When damage does occur, the Haul Road Agreement facilitates cooperation between the user and the County, either for the user to repair the road to a set standard or to compensate the County to repair the damage.

The use of the Haul Road Agreement is of benefit to both the Company and the County by monitoring the condition of the roads.

Once again, the County did not place road bans on gravel roads, instead applied time restrictions and assigned designated routes  according to conditions.  The County will continue to use the same practices in 2010, as long as the cooperation continues from the users.

Oiled roads will remain at 75% road ban

All individuals and farmers hauling heavy loads on County roads are kindly requested to please call the County at 650-5100.

Cooperation and Communication continues to keep roads in good driving condition.
