Fugitive emissions, for example, unintentional fugitive methane emissions from sources such as equipment leaks and storage from the upstream oil and gas and oil sands sectors and natural gas transmission, distribution, and storage facilities, were not identified as covered sources when Turning the Corner was unveiled in April 2007. Reduction requirements for these sources will be implemented through regulated codes of practices. For this reason, reductions in fugitive emissions are not eligible for early action.
