Service Description: The Seismic Monitoring Area (SEISMIC_AREAS_PY) feature class represents special project order areas, determined by the BCER, focused on seismic monitoring and mitigation of induced seismicity. These areas have operational requirements, submissions and measures a permit holder must follow during hydraulic fracturing operations.
The BCER has made enhancements to the Seismic Monitoring Area Special Project Orders focused on induced seismicity (IS) from hydraulic fracturing operations involving horizontal, multi-stage fracturing in a well in northeast B.C. Within these special project order areas permit holders are required to submit induced seismicity pre-assessment reports and monitor for seismicity during operations. Seismic magnitude thresholds have been established in these areas and mitigations are required in response to seismic activity.
