Enbridge is Canada’s largest transporter of crude oil, withapproximately 25,420 kilometres (15,795 miles) of pipe inthe mainline across North America.

Our operations

Pipelines in Enbridge’s mainline system are regulated by the National Energy Board (NEB).

Page 7: Pipeline safety and emergency information/media/www/Site Documents/In...oil pipeline systems. Crude oil storage facilities are used to safely store and transport crude oil to refineries

Existing system

Through six adjacent pipelines with acombined design operating capacity ofapproximately 2.6 million barrels per day,the mainline system transports variousgrades of crude oil and diluted bitumenfrom western Canada to the midwest USand eastern Canada.

Above ground facilities

Enbridge owns and operates severalabove ground facilities along its crudeoil pipeline systems. Crude oil storagefacilities are used to safely store andtransport crude oil to refineries and othermarked destinations via pipeline. Pumpstations increase pressure in the pipelineto maintain flow and are monitored 24/7by Enbridge’s control centres. Valve sitesare located along the pipeline right-of-way(ROW) and may be used to control theflow of products in the pipeline.

Enbridge has established a significant presence incontract crude oil storage across North Americain recent years.

Our pipelines meet or exceedgovernment standards, and overa half-century of experiencehas proven that pipelinesare the single safest methodof transporting petroleumproducts and natural gas.

Pipeline safety

As a neighbour, you also make animportant contribution to the team. Byobserving right-of-way safety precautions,and keeping in touch, you can help preventincidents and minimize their impacts.

From the ground up

While our pipelines are buried out of sightbeneath the ground in the right-of-way(ROW), we never lose sight of the biggerpicture of our potential impact on theair, water and land around us, and ourresponsibility to preserve all elementsof our environment.

In fact, our activities–everything frompipeline design, construction, testing,maintenance, operation and safetypractices–are subject to governmentregulations, which we meet or exceed.

When we do disturb the ground, everyeffort is made to restore the land to itsoriginal condition and to protect thequality of the air and water that sustain us.

We constantly monitor all of our activitiesand take every precaution to make surewe protect the environment.

Protecting your community

Enbridge has a wide range of programsto safeguard the integrity of the pipelinesystem that runs through your land or nearyour community.

We invest heavily in the tools,technologies, people and strategies weneed to make sure the pipeline networkshave the strength and fitness needed todo the job safely and reliably.

Safety in processes and technologies

From the purchase of high quality steel pipemanufactured to meet stringent criteria,to the cathodic protection system weemploy to prevent corrosion once the pipeis installed, Enbridge makes the safety of

Enbridge takes seriously its responsibilityfor safe pipeline operation. Beingresponsible for pipeline integrity,however, does not mean working alone.We work year-round to provide safe,reliable operations, and we regularlycommunicate important information tolocal governments, community fire andpolice services, utilities, contractors,neighbours and tenants.

Preparedness means developingintegrated response plans based on opencommunication and teamwork. Enbridgeworks with local fire and police services sothat they have the information they requireto respond to an emergency. We holdregular training exercises in selectlocations throughout the year to keepemployees’ skills fresh, and to maintainstrong and effective coordination withlocal emergency responders.

the system a priority before and during itsoperation. The processes and technologieswe use to prevent and detect leaks include:

• The careful selection and testingof pipe prior to and during themanufacturing process

• X-ray or ultrasonic testing of all weldsmade to a mainline pipeline sectionduring its construction

• Sophisticated monitoring and controlsystems that operate around the clock,365 days a year

• Research and development ontechnologies designed to preventcorrosion and cracking

• Tests to confirm pipeline integrityon new pipelines/systems

• The use of durable coating systemsand cathodic protection (use of lowvoltage electric current) to protectpipe from external corrosion

• The use of increasingly sophisticatedin-line inspection technologies tomeasure the size and location ofeven minute changes in the integrityof every line in our system

Safety in people and practices

In addition to developing and puttingthe right processes and technologiesinto place, the right people and practicesalso drive our efforts to keep the pipelinesafe. Our initiatives include:

• Regular pipeline ROW patrols byaircraft and in some areas by land

• Investigative dig programs to affectpipeline integrity

• Meeting and exceeding industrystandards and regulations

• Public awareness education

• Research and development

• The stationing of emergency responsestaff and equipment at strategiclocations along the pipeline route

Respecting the environment

Whether it’s plant life, wildlife, soil, freshwater or historical artifacts, in every aspectof our business we work hard to preservethe natural balance of your land. To do that,we plan very carefully from start to finishon any project, making sure our peopleknow what’s expected, talking to you, andimplementing programs in place that willhelp to protect the environment.

8Damage prevention

Recognizing your important contribution,Enbridge is committed to dealing fairlyand consistently with everyone wholives and works along the pipeline route.

This relationship began when wenegotiated the original easementagreement. The year the originaleasement agreement was negotiatedvaries across the pipeline system and isdependent on the year of initial pipelineconstruction. As growth continued,additional pipelines were installed andin some situations the original ROWbecame full, requiring an additionaleasement to be negotiated.

In return for compensation, Enbridgewas granted the right to use the ROWfor constructing, operating andmaintaining its pipelines.

Neighbours, in turn, help to protectthe safety of the line by abiding by theagreement and all government regulationswith respect to excavation, constructionor other activities over or near pipelines.

The National Energy Board (NEB)Safety Zone

If you are planning to excavate usingpower operated equipment or useexplosives within the 30 metre (100 feet)safety zone, you must contact Enbridgefirst and obtain permission. Pleasecontact us using the information listedon the last page of this brochure. We willwork with you so that you may completeyour work safely.

NEB requirements

Excavation and construction activitiesin the vicinity of the Enbridge pipeline(s)are subject to the legal requirementsof the National Energy Board Act and

Enbridge is committed todealing fairly and consistentlywith everyone who lives andworks along the pipeline route.

Understanding the Right-of-Way(ROW)

A ROW is a strip of land of varying widthsthat contains one or more pipelines.The actual width of the ROW in your areawill be noted in your specific easementagreement. The ROW:

• Allows our workers access forinspection, maintenance, testingor emergencies

• Identifies an area that restricts certainactivities to protect public safety

While permanent pipeline markers arelocated at roads, railways and otherintervals along the ROW, these show onlythe approximate location of the buriedpipelines. The depth and location ofthe pipelines vary within the ROW. TheROW exists in many kinds of ecosystemsfrom river crossings and cultivated fieldsto sub-Arctic tundra and urban areas.Because of this, there is no distinct lookto the ROW.

Easement agreements

Good working relationships betweenpipeline companies and the propertyowners and tenants along the ROWare essential to the safety and reliabilityof the pipeline system.

For decades, we’ve been developing andmaintaining constructive relationshipswith thousands of neighbours like you.

the National Energy Board PipelineCrossing Regulations, Parts I and II.

The general requirements of the PipelineCrossing Regulations do not apply to:

• An excavation caused by the pipelinecompany or its agents, or

• Activities, other than the constructionor installation of a facility, that disturbless than three-tenths of a metre (onefoot) of ground below the initial gradeand that do not reduce the total coverover the pipe

Part I of the Pipeline Crossing Regulationssets out in more detail the conditionsunder which excavation and constructionactivities near the ROW can beconducted safely. Part II establishes theresponsibilities of the pipeline companyto the person proposing or conductingthe activity and to the NEB.

We’ll be there

To protect public safety and reducethe risk of pipeline damage, you mustcontact us at least three working daysbefore beginning an excavation usingpower operated equipment on or within30 metres (100 feet) of the ROW, or usingexplosives near the ROW. We will helpyou avoid problems and delays by:

• Acquainting you with the 30 metre(100 feet) safety zone on either sideof the ROW, and providing guidelinesfor excavation and blasting

• Helping you obtain written permissionfor excavations on or within 30 metres(100 feet) of our pipeline ROW

• Locating and marking our pipelines

• Ensuring an Enbridge fieldrepresentative is on site

For installations across the ROW, writtenpermission is required. Once a writtenrequest is received, we will contact youwithin 10 days.

Other activities on the ROW

If you plan to carry out certain activities onthe ROW, you must consult with Enbridgebefore moving ahead. Approvals for somefacilities may take longer, so plan ahead.This includes calling us in advance whenyou want to:

• Install fence posts

• Use explosives

• Construct roads, paving, parking,driveways, ditches, railways, overheador underground utilities or other facilities

• Deep tillage exceeding 45 centimetres(18 inches) in depth

• Encroach on the ROW with servicesor other facilities

• Build a berm

• Stockpile materials

• Conduct a ground disturbanceexcavation

Operating vehicles or mobileequipment across the pipeline ROW

Enbridge routinely permits the operationof agricultural vehicles and equipmentacross the pipeline ROW for the purpose

of normal farming operations such ascultivation, planting and harvesting.However, with the advent of largerand heavier agricultural vehicles andequipment, Enbridge has developedthe Agricultural Vehicle & EquipmentScreening Tool to help identify thoseexceptional circumstances where furtherdetailed assessment may be required toensure that larger agricultural vehicles orequipment can safely cross the EnbridgeROW. The Enbridge Agricultural Vehicle &Equipment Screening Tool was developedwith this objective in mind.

Rest assured that this tool is in no waymeant to transfer Enbridge’s portion of itsresponsibility and liability for safe pipelineoperations to our neighbours. It is simplya tool that will assist us in identifying andpreventing potential safety issues beforethey arise. This tool should only be used toevaluate equipment crossing Enbridge’spipelines and does not provide any formof approval for excavations other thanploughing or tilling to a maximum depthof 45 centimetres (18 inches) across theEnbridge ROW.

Emergency information

In an emergency

Pipelines have been proven as thesafest transportation mode for energycommodities. Pipeline leaks are rarebut can happen for a number of differentreasons. Statistics show that third partydamage is one of the most commonreasons for pipeline leaks or ruptures,which underscores the importance ofCall or Click Before You Dig programs.

The liquid hydrocarbons in Enbridge’spipeline system are flammable, and arepotentially hazardous and explosiveunder certain conditions.

Pipelines can also leak as a result ofa defect or some other type of pipewalldamage. Internal inspection tools areused to detect potential pipe problemsin advance, which enable companiesto perform investigative digs and repairthe damage. Since some commoditiesare more flammable than others,a pipeline leak or rupture will havedifferent consequences dependingon the commodity being transported.

Hydrocarbon products such as naturalgas liquids or petroleum products arevery flammable, and will catch fire fromeven the smallest spark or ignition source.Crude oil is also flammable under certainconditions and can pose an environmentalthreat if large volumes escape.

It’s important to know what to do if yoususpect pipeline operations have beendisrupted in any way.

Given our thorough maintenance, testing,training, monitoring and safety programs,a pipeline leak is unlikely; however, if onewere to occur, it’s important that you knowthe warning signs and how to respond inthe event of an emergency.

Know the warning signs

For pipelines carrying liquid hydrocarbons,each product has individual characteristics.This means that the warning signs can varydepending on the product involved.

You might see…

• A moist patch or pool of blackliquid…it may be crude oil

• A moist patch or pool of lightbrown or yellow liquid…it may besynthetic crude oil or condensate

• A steam-like cloud, or a frost-likeappearance on the ground…it may be a natural gas liquid

You might hear…

• A roaring, blowing or hissingsound…it may be a pipeline leak

You might smell…

• An odour similar to gasoline ordiesel fuel…it may be a refinedoil product

• An odour similar to gasoline, butmuch stronger and less pleasant…it may be natural gas liquid

Page 15: Pipeline safety and emergency information/media/www/Site Documents/In...oil pipeline systems. Crude oil storage facilities are used to safely store and transport crude oil to refineries

13

What not to do in an emergency

• Do not touch any liquid or vapourthat may have come from the pipeline

• Do not drive into the area or startyour car

• Do not light a match

• Do not turn on or off anything thatmay create a spark, including cellphones, telephones, light switches,vehicle alarms and flashlights

• Do not operate pipeline valves

Local public safety officials will determinewhether residents should evacuate orshelter-in-place. Residents may be askedto evacuate if it is no longer safe to be inthe area or to shelter-in-place if there issomething unsafe in the environment.

If you do not know the location ofthe pipeline leak, shelter-in-place:

• Immediately go indoors and closeall windows and outside doors

• Take shelter in the room with theleast amount of windows and vents
