289 Owner or occupier must not unreasonably refuse to make access agreement

(1) An owner or occupier of the land must not if asked by a GHG authority holder unreasonably refuse to make an access agreement for the exercise of the access rights.

(2) For subsection (1), the owner or occupier does not unreasonably refuse only because the owner or occupier asks for agreement to be subject to reasonable and relevant conditions offered by the owner or occupier.

(3) If the holder asks the owner or occupier to make an access agreement and the owner or occupier has not within 20 business days made the agreement, the owner or occupier is taken to have refused to agree.

Note--
Either party may refer a refusal under subsection (1) or (3) to the Land Court to decide whether the refusal is unreasonable. See section 293.
