New Sustainable Development Oil Sands Commitments

• We will advance our goal to decrease non-saline water use in our oil sands operations.
• We will advance understanding of regional groundwater in the Southern Athabasca region.
• We will continue to increase the species and number of trees we plant for our Faster Forests program as part of the reclamation process.
• We will reduce waste while developing and operating our oil sands assets.
• We will develop an air management strategy that will be comprehensive and incorporate new federal and provincial air quality emission regulations as they are being developed and adopted, as well as emerging greenhouse gas regulations.
• We will work with regional stakeholders and industry on highway safety in the region.
• We will work to conclude bi-lateral Community Agreements with key Aboriginal groups that honour our ConocoPhillips Canada Stakeholder Engagement Policy and SPIRIT values, which include commitments to Safety, People, Integrity, Responsibility, Innovation and Teamwork.
• We will act internally and with local communities to improve understanding of and respect for Aboriginal culture.
• We will provide Aboriginal communities and local contractors information about our Surmont business and employment opportunities and ensure our community investment is consistent with the community agreements we sign.
