The challenges that arise when industry and communities coexist can be complex and wide-ranging; everything from managing noise levels and road congestion to ensuring communities are stable, safe and prosperous places to live.
OSCA focuses on four key areas: community wellbeing; workforce; infrastructure and Indigenous community engagement. In each area, the organization is finding ways for industry to engage community stakeholders and help create solutions for ongoing or timely issues. Meet the staff focused on building thriving communities in the Athabasca Oil Sands Area.
