NEB boss takes reins in era of tough choices

2 03 2008

Gaetan Caron is no stranger to the hot seat of Canada’s national energy regulator.

Before taking over the reins of the National Energy Board on Sept. 20, Charon was vice-chairman, rising to chairman and CEO after nearly 30 years as a staffer in the engineering department and then as a director.

Caron takes over the board at a time when it is faced with multibillion-dollar pipeline bitumen projects to the U.S. and while industry awaits a decision on the long-awaited Mackenzie Valley natural gas pipeline from the Arctic.
