You can get away with a smaller setback -- maybe.

A word to the wise

bog offset Regulations dictate setback between oil and gas production equipment and road allowances, residences and water bodies. But sometimes you can get a relaxation on those setbacks.

This operator convinced the regulator to relax a setback to a bog. In her application, you can see her reasoning, the regulator's objections, their negotiation and the final resolution.

If you knew that some people get out of every one of their speeding tickets, wouldn't you want to know how? Some people know how to get the rules bent (or relaxed) and use it all the time.

Make sure your application doesn't get stuck at the regulator.
