Frontier project closer to approval

A new oil sands project is getting closer to final approval.

The Energy Resources Conservation Board is opening up the application for the Frontier project to comment.

Teck Resources of Vancouver filed its application to build the project last November, and recently acquired its 50% partner in the project to take 100% interest in it.

Frontier is about 100 kilometres north of Fort McMurray and is designed for four production lines totalling more than 277 thousand barrels per day.
