Calgary-based Encana is apologizing to people affected by a toxic gas-well blow-out in northern British Columbia last November.
The energy company also says it is taking steps to make wells safer.
The apology comes just hours after B-C’s oil-and-gas watch-dog group slammed Encana for not having safety valves in the right location and for not letting people in the area know a leak was happening.
The leak happened near Dawson Creek about 600 kilometres northwest of Edmonton.
The well in question had only been operation for 2-weeks.
