EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Anchor Loop Pipeline Expansion Design Basis Memorandum (DBM) defines basic design philosophies and concepts for the Anchor Loop Pipeline Expansion Project. The DBM is a living document and will be updated as required to reflect the evolving requirements and new information as the project progresses. A separate Project Execution Plan (PEP) will describe the execution of the detailed design, procurement, construction, and commissioning elements of the project.

The Trans Mountain pipeline was originally designed to transport a medium crude oil (viscosity of 23 centistokes (cSt)). Subsequent modifications have enabled a variety of crude oils and refined products to be transported in batches through the pipeline. Today, regular shipments of gasoline, diesel fuel, iso-octane, light crude, synthetic crude, medium crude, and heavy crude are made.

The pipeline portions of the TMPL system was constructed between 1952 and 1954 includes a NPS 24 pipeline that runs from Edmonton, Alberta, to Burnaby, British Columbia and two (2) 85 km NPS 30 loops from Edson to Hinton in Alberta, and from Darfield to Kamloops in British Columbia. The facilities on the TMPL system has been expanded and contracted a number of times over time; it currently has a total of 11 pump stations, five (5) located in Alberta and six (6) located in British Columbia.

The initiating pump station and batch assembly tanks are located at Edmonton, Alberta. Intermediate injection points and injection tanks are located in Edson, Alberta, and Kamloops, British Columbia. Intermediate take-off points and take-off tanks are located in Kamloops and Sumas, British Columbia. Tanks are also located at the end of the pipeline at the Burnaby terminal.

Kinder Morgan Canada Inc. (KMCI) has initiated a series of expansions for the Trans Mountain Pipeline (TMPL) system. The Trans Mountain Expansion Project (TMPSE) currently under construction will install ten (10) new pump stations by first quarter 2007. An additional pump station at Blue River has been added to the TMPSE project scope with an on-stream date of April 2008. The TMPSE project is expected to increase the Operating Capacity from 225,000 bpd to close to 260,000 bpd of a batch train that includes 20% heavy crude by volume.

The TMX – Anchor Loop Project includes the construction and installation of 7.7 km of NPS 30 and 151.9 km of NPS 36 pipeline loop. The parallel section of NPS 24 TMPL will be isolated and placed into an idle state. The facilities portion of the project includes the construction and installation of one (1) intermediate pump station in Alberta (Wolf) and one (1) other in British Columbia (Chappel). It also provides for the installation of scraper trap components at the Hinton Pump Station and at the new Hargreaves Scraper Trap site. The project also includes the installation of remotely actuated mainline valve site facilities, deactivation of the Niton Pump Station; downgrade the existing Hinton Scraper Trap facility to a valve site, and completing the connection of the new loop to the Jasper Pump Station.

The Project will increase the TMPL Operating Capacity from about 260,000 bpd to 300,000 bpd by November 2008. These volumes include a 20% proportion of Heavy Crude. The Project is planning to provide an interim capacity of about 287,000 bpd by April 2008 by connecting most of the Alberta section of the Loop, about 96 km and commissioning the new Wolf and Chappel pump stations.

Key project success factors have been identified as Health and Safety, Environmental Protection, Regulatory Compliance, Schedule, Project Integration, Capital Cost, and Operating Cost. Within the context of these success factors, the pipelines will be designed “fit for purpose”.

Design of the pipeline will be guided by several additional fundamental philosophies:

Commitments

− Existing commitments to regulatory bodies and other parties will be honoured.

Codes and Standards

− Design will comply with all applicable federal, provincial, and municipal codes and standards.

Cost Effective Design

− Life-cycle costs will be minimized, while safety and environmental standards are maintained.

− Pipeline designs will be based on detailed operating requirements and fluid parameters provided by upstream, downstream, and integration design teams. Steady-state and transient hydraulic calculations will be used to determine and optimize line sizes, wall thicknesses, and power requirements.

Life and Reliability

− Design life of the Loop will be 100 years; system reliabilities will be optimized based on life-cycle costs.

− Wolf and Chappel Pump Stations and the Hargreaves Scraper Trap Facility shall be designed for a temporary life.

Future Expansion

− Provision for easily expanded facilities to accommodate future flows up to the hydraulic capacity of the line will be considered.

Special Design Consideration

− Design for wetlands will be given special consideration.

− The design shall consider rock blasting and working in close proximity to the operating TMPL system.

Power

− Facilities will be electrically powered; emergency power will be installed.

Control and Custody

− The automated block valves and pump stations will be remotely controlled from KMCI’s Control Centre. No custody transfer metering will be installed.

Corrosion Control

− All buried and above grade pipe will be externally coated; cathodic protection systems will be installed.

Maintenance

− Provision will be made for cleaning and in-line inspection tools, shop, and in-situ maintenance.

Health and Safety

− Design will provide for healthy and safe work environments for operations and maintenance.

Anchor Loop Project



General Environmental Responsibility

− Protective devices and containment will be installed at the facilities; mainline valves will be remotely operable where practical.

− Designs shall accommodate the environmental and heritage resource sensitivities of Jasper National Park and Mount Robson Provincial Park.

Leak Detection

− Leak detection systems will be installed for pipelines and facilities.

− Components will be installed as required to maintain or improve on the current sensitivity of approximately 100m3/hr

Governing Regulations

− The Onshore Pipeline Regulations (OPR 99) shall be considered the governing regulation for all Canadian facilities. Any conditions issued with the NEB permit shall be considered of equal precedence to the OPR 99 regulations.

Schedule

− Construction of the Loop is to commence on or about August 15, 2007. The pipeline and facilities are to be in-service prior to November 30, 2008. The interim capacity increase is to be achieved by April 30, 2008. The completion of deactivation activities is presently undetermined.

1.0 PURPOSE

This DBM outlines the design philosophy, criteria, and definition of the scope of the Anchor Loop Pipeline Expansion project. In addition, the DBM also explicitly lists assumptions and areas that require further study or development.

The purpose of this DBM is:

• To obtain consistency and compatibility between all design aspects of the project;

• To define basic design philosophies and concepts for the project;

• To obtain commitment to the design basis by all involved parties; and

• To provide a vehicle to communicate the project design basis to management, owners, and, if appropriate, government agencies.

2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.1 Anchor Loop Project The Project is required to increase the Trans Mountain Pipeline (TMPL) system’s operating capacity from about 260,000 bpd to 300,000 bpd to match Shipper’s total flow nominations. The system is owned by Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. The capacity-increase portion of the project includes 159.6 km of NPS 30 and NPS 36 pipeline loop and two (2) new pump stations (Wolf and Chappel).

The scope also includes construction of two (2) Scraper Trap facilities and operational suspension of Niton pump station and the NPS 24 section of TMPL parallel to the loop.

Anchor Loop Project



2.2 System Capacity The flow rates and capacities reported are ex. Edmonton and a function of existing and proposed configurations. The target operating capacity for the TMPL system after completion of the Project is 300,000 bpd. The expected increase in flow is detailed in Section 5.5; peak flow rate, design, and operating capacity are defined as follows.

2.2.1 Peak Flow Rate The peak flow rate is the maximum safe flow rate that can be achieved with a maximum station discharge pressure at MOP. The peak flow rate will vary over time depending on the type and location of the batches in the pipeline. This peak rate is typically used to determine the installed power requirements and is the highest flow rate that can be maintained for an extended period (i.e. no allowance for shutdowns).

2.2.2 Design Capacity The design capacity is the calculated hydraulic capacity of the system over a period of 24 consecutive hours without interruption of service. The design flow rate used in the hydraulic analysis is the total of the Shippers’ nominations divided by a “sustainability factor”. The capacity is determined using a six-day cycle batch mix identified in Section 5.5.2 which includes super heavy crude of 20% of total throughput.

2.2.3 Operating Capacity The operating capacity is the design capacity multiplied by the “sustainability factor”. This factor represents the percentage of time that the pipeline can operate, on average, allowing for periods when pipeline operations are affected by planned maintenance or power, equipment, or other failures along the pipeline. KMCI uses a factor of 0.95 on TMPL.

2.2.4 Base Annual Throughput The base annual throughput is an annual average throughput equal to 92.5% of design capacity based on a heavy oil component of 20% of total throughput.

2.3 Pipeline Loop The “KLs” referenced in this DBM refer to the pipeline loop but correlate to the “KP” system along the existing TMPL. References to “KLs” occur only where the loop deviates from the existing pipeline. Due to these deviations, the actual length of the loop is about 1.6 km longer than the same segment of the existing TMPL.

The pipeline loop consists of two (2) segments: 7.7 km of NPS 30 pipeline beginning at the existing Hinton Scraper Trap site west of Hinton, Alberta, (KP310.0) to the Hinton Pump Station (KP317.7) and approximately 151.9 km of NPS 36 pipeline from the Hinton Pump Station to the proposed Hargreaves Scraper Trap site (KP 468.0), near Rearguard, British Columbia.

The route of the pipeline loop is generally parallel to the existing TMPL. It passes through Jasper National Park (JNP) a distance of approximately 80 km. It continues through Mount Robson Provincial Park (MRPP) a distance of approximately 60 km. The route follows an established transportation corridor of historic and contemporary

significance. The corridor contains Highway 16 (Yellowhead TransCanada Highway), CN Railway, the TMPL, ATCO GAS Pipeline, ATCO Electric powerline, Telus fibre-optic lines, and other abandoned rail and roadbed easements. The route abuts the existing TMPL alignment for approximately 56% of its entire length. It is on or abutting other linear rights-of-way (i.e., highways, roads, powerlines, abandoned rail grades) for 43% of its entire length. The remaining 1% of the route is connections between these existing linear features.

Figure 2.3.A - Loop Schematic

2.4 Facilities The scope of facilities includes:

Anchor Loop Project



Scraper trap drain lines will have the same heat tracing / insulation requirement as the pump stations.

Hinton Pump Station Scraper Traps A new, permanent trap facility will be constructed within the existing Hinton Pump station land limits. The trap facility shall be sized to accommodate planned expansion flow rates via the incoming NPS 30 line and outgoing NPS 36 line.

The Hinton Scraper Trap shall be designed as a permanent facility to integrate with existing infrastructure at Hinton Pump Station with control instrumentation selected to avoid duplication of what is already operational at Hinton Pump Station. Areas of integration shall include a Power, Service and Controls, and SCADA communications.

Components installed at the Hinton Pump Station (KP 317.7) will enable receipt of In-Line Inspection (ILI) tools and cleaning pigs from the upstream segment of new NPS 30 pipeline loop and launching of ILI tools and cleaning pigs into the downstream NPS 36 pipeline segment.

Hargreaves Scraper Trap Facility A new, temporary trap facility will be constructed at Hargreaves, just upstream of the Rearguard Pump Station. The Hargreaves site (KP 468.0) is a green-field location 2 km outside and west of MRPP.

The facility will accommodate receipt of NPS 36 ILI tools and cleaning pigs from the loop and the launching of NPS 24 tools downstream into the TMPL pipeline. The Hargreaves trap facility shall be constructed for short-term use. It will be sized to accommodate planned expansion flow rates via the incoming NPS 36 and outgoing NPS 24 lines.

Distinct features of the Hargreaves Scraper Trap facility shall include:

• Reduced trap shelter height to minimize impact on the highway line of sight;

• Power, Service and Controls (MCC), and SCADA communications managed locally;

• The existing MCC building at the Hinton Scraper Trap Facility reused at Hargreaves; and

• Hargreaves designed as a temporary facility with movable, reusable components as much as practicable.

Existing Hinton Scraper Trap Facility The existing Scraper Trap facility at Hinton (KP 310.0) is not required for future operations, and the facility will be mostly removed and become a MLBV site. The new NPS 30 loop will tie-into the existing NPS 30 loop at a point within the yard directly downstream of the existing below grade NPS 30 valve. This NPS 30 valve will remain in place and serve as a MLBV. Modifications will be made as required to enable the valve to be remotely actuated.

• EOS instrumentation for the SCADA system leak detection software (densitometer and temperature transmitters)

• 6.3 tonne manually operated overhead crane

• MMC building housing the PLC cabinet (Solartron Density Converter, SCADA RTU cabinet, AGT cabinet, chart recorder, front panel and status lamps), and MCC-B (lighting, starters and control).

Existing scraper trap facilities shall be fully removed from the NPS 30 segment of the pipeline loop and this facility shall be maintained as a MLBV site. The original NPS 24 pipeline from this trap facility to the Hinton pump station, which is about 7.7 km long, shall be deactivated in accordance with CSA Z662.

Timing of decommissioning activities shall be selected to minimize impact on the maintenance pigging schedule, and brought as close as possible to activation of the Hinton Pump Station scraper trap facilities.

Components of the existing trap facility shall be assessed for their reusable value and application to the new trap facilities at Hinton Pump Station and Hargreaves.

2.4.3 Idling of Niton Pump Station (KP 173.4) The Niton station is not required until future pipeline and facility expansion is implemented. It is to be temporarily isolated from the system and prepared as necessary to place into an idle state.

Deactivation of Niton pump station shall entail:

• Schedule activities to arrange for a light sweet batch of material, without any butane blending, to be within the Niton Station when it is shut down.

• Shutdown of the two (2) mainline pumps and motors;

• Isolate station suction and discharge piping; complete gravity drain down to the sump tank. Inject nitrogen at the high point vent locations. After the piping is drained, as confirmed by the sump tank level not changing, nitrogen flow will continue into the piping until completely purged. Maintain nominal nitrogen pressure inside the drained process piping;

• Re-inject products from the sump tank into the mainline and clean the tank;

• Blind the mainline from station suction and discharge piping, by flipping the existing spectacle blinds, located on the station side of the station isolation valves;

• Isolate the station re-injection piping from the mainline by installing a line blank on the station side of the re-injection to mainline isolation valve;

• Purge with nitrogen all remaining lines and equipment in previous volatile service. Equipment to be drained and purged includes the wedge meter, control valves and unit isolation valves, pressure relief valves, sump pump, and sump pump discharge line. All valve bodies to be drained of any product;

• Electrically isolate both units to the extent necessary without affecting safety, security and the environment. Lockout ancillary equipment;

• Maintain limited electrical power supply to the entire station for equipment integrity, cathodic protection, security, and critical instrument monitoring, i.e. mainline temperature pressure and density, station pressure, gas detection, fire detection, smoke detection, floor sump level;

• Use of signage to clearly identify the status of all equipment; and

2.4.4 Tie-In to Jasper Pump Station Jasper Pump Station will be tied into the new NPS 36 line; and the existing components to the NPS 24 line will be isolated or removed as required. All isolated sections shall be drained of oil, filled with Nitrogen, and subsequently monitored.

The tie-in shall ensure that flow through the NPS 36 line can be routed through the station pumps as required by Operations.

2.4.5 Mainline Block Valve (MLBV) Sites and Ancillary Facilities Actuators for the remote motorized operation of eleven (11) Gate valves on the pipeline loop will be purchased and commissioned as a part of the project. Additional valves are required at the Hinton Pump Station and at Hargreaves Scraper Trap facility. One (1) existing NPS 30 valve at the Hinton Scraper Trap site will remain in place and be used as a MLBV. Power, Civil, and Mechanical ancillary components required to support operations at the valve sites will be installed.

The existing right-of-way shall provide primary access to each valve site to the extent possible. Additional requirements for locations with MOV’s shall include:

• Perimeter fencing with a lockable gate;

• Valve controls enclosure;

• Power receptacle (for connection to auxiliary power); and

• A Motorola Moscad communications system complete with tower or standard pipe antennas (as required by site for the locations where direct connection to Telecom service providers is not possible).

3.0 PROJECT SUCCESS FACTORS

4.0 FUNDAMENTAL PHILOSOPHIES

4.1 Fitness-for-Purpose The Anchor Loop pipelines and facilities shall be designed to be capable of transporting the required volumes of products, allowing for planned maintenance and reasonable unplanned outage.

Equipment will be selected based on a balance of life-cycle capital and operating costs. It is preferable that the equipment chosen for the initial (2007) phase of the expansion will be of standard sizes suitable for service through to and including the final phase (hydraulic capacity) without replacement, and that minimal disruption to pumping is required to upgrade for future phases.

The facilities will be easily operable and maintainable with reasonable maintenance access. A balance will be met between automated and manual operation and between ease of maintenance and cost of maintenance.

Facilities not required for the primary function of the pipeline system, or not contributing significantly to its reliability, operability or maintainability would not be incorporated.

The project shall be designed to meet the operating capacity objective of 300,000 bpd, allowing for planned maintenance and expected system reliability.

Design, procurement, and construction at Wolf and Chappel Pump Stations shall be cognizant of their anticipated short operational life span (estimated three (3) years). The salvage value of these stations shall be optimized.

Product Quality shall be considered in the design of facilities. “Dead-legs” in piping shall be minimized, but not at the expense of good piping design.

4.2 Codes and Standards Design of the pipeline loop and facilities will respect applicable federal, provincial, municipal, and project codes, regulations, and standards as specified in Sections 5.1 and 5.2.

The design of pipelines and ancillary components, facilities, and access roadways shall use existing internal standards and practices where possible. These will be updated as required to reflect project specific conditions and actual local design requirements.

4.3 Cost Effective Design A cost effective design approach will be used with the goal of minimizing life-cycle cost while meeting the project requirements for safety, environmental protection, regulatory compliance, and performance. Synergy with KMCI standards and practices will be maintained, where positive life-cycle cost benefits can be demonstrated.

4.4 Life and Reliability For detailed design purposes, a minimum design life of 100 years will be used in predictive modeling of the pipeline loop. In certain situations where opportunities exist, an even more prudent allowance towards a safer design will be applied. For instance, river bed scour design will provide protection from flood events having a 200-year recurrence interval.

Anchor Loop Project



The design of facilities will meet the requirements of OPR, relevant industry standards, and internal specifications but will consider the anticipated short life cycle of Wolf, Chappel, and Hargreaves facilities.

4.5 Future Expansion Provision for easily expanded facilities to accommodate future flows up to the hydraulic capacity of the line will be considered.

4.6 Special Design Considerations Routing through JNP and MRPP requires special considerations for enhanced environmental protection. These considerations will influence the separation of pipelines; spacing of isolation valves; provisions for valve automation; pipe wall thickness; and crossing designs for road, railway, and watercourses.

The presence of wetlands was considered in the routing. Where wetlands areas could not be avoided, appropriate engineering procedures will be required for access roads, station grading and building and equipment foundations. Cost studies will determine the optimal construction methods.

The water table may be high at the pump station locations and due consideration will be given to buoyancy. It may be necessary to provide hold down anchors for buried piping and sump tanks.

In addition to hydraulic requirements, the pump station locations will consider foundation soil conditions, proximity to access roads, and proximity to power supplies.

Layout and design of the two (2) pump stations will be modeled from the currently in-progress Trans Mountain Pump Station Expansion Project (TMPSE).

Standard station designs shall be completed early in the detailed engineering phase with the identification of specific variations where required. Construction drawing sets for the individual stations shall be based on the standard station design with a specific dedicated set of drawings for each station

Efforts shall be made to maximize the amount of shop work and to minimize the amount of field work required. All piping will be shop fabricated and tested to the furthest extent practical. All piping and equipment will be shop coated.

4.7 Power Facilities power requirements shall be met by a combination strategy of existing power supply, new distribution lines, and new transmission lines. Supply of the power infrastructure will be provided through a combination of agreements in Alberta and British Columbia and is subject to several regulatory approval processes.

There are no planned upgrades to the power supply at the Hinton Pump Station to accommodate the scraper trap facility.

An existing 14KV single-phase power supply will service the planned Hargreaves (British Columbia) scraper trap. The service will be provided by BC Hydro.

UPS power at each pump station will be provided and sized for instrumentation, control, and monitoring systems, as well as provide ESO capability for station isolation valves.

4.7.1 Wolf and Chappel Pump Stations

In Alberta, the Wolf Pump Station will be powered from a substation through a new build, own, and operate (BOO) Distribution Agreement. AESO has designated Fortis Alberta to be the utilities that will own and operate the power facilities connecting the provincial power grid to the Wolf Pump Station.

In British Columbia, the Chappel Pump Station electrical substation will be owned, operated, and maintained by the TMPL System. The Utility Prime Contractor will complete regulatory approvals, route selection, public and First Nations consultation, land agreements, and technical requirements. KMCI will negotiate an EPCM (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction Management) agreement with the Utility Prime Contractor.

4.7.2 Mainline Block Valve Sites Utility power will be provided for the new MLBV sites where practical. Alternative power will be considered where appropriate.

4.8 Control, SCADA, and Communications The TMPL facilities are monitored and controlled by Control Center Operators located in the Edmonton Control Center. Pump station facilities are unmanned, remotely operated facilities. Control and shutdown functions for the protection of equipment shall be installed at the equipment location and be independent of inputs from SCADA or operation of the SCADA system.

The existing control philosophy of the TMPL system will be maintained on the project.

The control system at each pump station will be PLC-based using high-speed communication links. SCADA information to / from each site will be sent to the Edmonton control center via a frame relay communication system. Communications to remote scraper traps and mail line block valve sites will be by telephone land lines where possible and by MOSCAD or equal radio links via mountain top repeaters to the nearest pump station where the data will be incorporated into the local PLC-DC for polling by the SCADA system. The configuration and capacity of this system will be analyzed during detailed engineering.

Field instrumentation will be used to ensure safe and reliable operation of each facility. Where required by codes and standards, redundant instrumentation will be installed. Where possible, analog transmitters will be installed instead of on-off switches, due to better reliability and easier remote troubleshooting. The UPS will provide power for PLC controllers, SCADA communication, field instrumentation and LOI, as well as fire / gas detection systems

4.9 Corrosion Control Above ground components, including piping, equipment, and structures, will be coated; however, paint colors of facilities will be selected with regard to compatibility with surrounding facilities.

Piping to be insulated will only require a prime coating. No internal coating of piping or piping components is required.

The existing Cathodic Protection (CP) system will be supplemented as required with new or replacement components (e.g. rectifiers, groundbeds). CP shall be applied to all buried high-pressure pipeline components including the respective section of temporarily suspended NPS 24 TMPL pipeline.

4.10 Maintenance Maintenance of the new facilities will follow the same philosophies as the existing TMPL facilities. Facilities will be designed to allow for efficient in-situ equipment maintenance.

4.11 Health and Safety The facilities will be designed to provide a healthy and safe working environment for operations and maintenance personnel. Designs will include adequate ventilation, area and task lighting, handrails and ladders / stairways at elevated structures, guards and adequate working or access space around rotating equipment, and the minimizing of confined spaces.

Fire, smoke, combustible gas detectors, and other safety sensors and alarms will be provided.

Facilities will be designed to provide an appropriately comfortable and hygienic work environment. Remote, normally unmanned facilities will include water and basic sanitation facilities except at remote MLBV sites.

All facilities will provide a safe working environment in accordance with Occupational Health and Safety requirements and KMCI’s safety practices. Safety will be a significant consideration in the layout and features of facilities:

• Stairways will provide the primary access to elevated structures where frequent access is required.

• “Side-step” ladders will be considered for elevated structures requiring infrequent access.

• Confined spaces will be minimized.

• Coupling guards or other guards will be provided for all exposed rotating equipment.

• Suitable warning signs will be posted for these and other hazards.

• Fire, smoke, combustible gas detectors, and other safety related sensors and alarms would be provided, as required.

Final safety designs will be reviewed through Process Hazard Assessments.

4.12 General Environment Responsibility Fugitive emissions from the pipelines or facilities will be minimized through appropriate design and operating procedures, regular maintenance, routine monitoring and

inspection, and the installation of protective devices on piping, storage tanks, sump tanks, etc. In addition, in order to minimize the severity of any accidental releases, isolation, containment, leak detection, and response systems will be included in the Anchor Loop system designs.

Protective devices will include high-pressure sensors and relief systems on piping and level sensors on tanks.

MLBVs will be placed, on either side of major river crossings and at other appropriate intervals to reduce the volumes that could be released due to line leaks. Their location is selected, in part, on an analysis of potential draindown volumes. All motor operated gate valves will be remotely operable.

Future government environmental policies will be anticipated and considered during technology selection particularly with respect to energy conservation.

Prevention of oil spills reaching the local environment shall be considered in the design of facilities. Pump station and scraper trap facilities shall be designed to drain groundwater from areas of potential hydrocarbon releases through a controlled route with the capability of impounding liquids. Groundwater outlet piping from containment catchments shall be controlled by normally closed manual valves. Hydrocarbon detectors shall be provided in the catchments at remote stations to provide an alarm to the Control Center Operator in the event of an oil release.

Detailed environmental assessments were prepared during the early planning phases of the project, and submitted with the regulatory applications. Specifications for the construction of facilities shall incorporate environmental mitigation measures consistent with commitments made to the regulatory authorities as outlined in the Environmental Protection Plan (EPP). In the event that additional environmental conditions are received with the approvals for the work, the additional conditions will be incorporated into the designs and specifications at that time.

4.13 Commitments Commitments made to the Regulatory Agencies, such as those identified in the EPP, as well as those contained in responses to Information Requests, will be honoured.

Other commitments that may develop during the course of the project, such as those negotiated with stakeholders, will also be honoured.

4.14 Leak Detection and Response Components of the project will be integrated through SCADA into the existing leak detection system. TMPL’s existing pipeline leak detection system, the Computational Pipeline Modeling (CPM) program, will be used.

Metering will be installed where required at the pump stations in order to maintain the current level of leak detection sensitivity of approximately 100m3/hr.

The individual facility containment systems will be provided with leak detection alarms. These will consist of single or multiple level alarms, hydrocarbon detection sensors, or combination of both. Flow based leak detection will be provided for mainline pump mechanical seals.

In cases where a pipeline leak is detected, the Edmonton Control Center Operator (CCO) can activate an emergency shutdown of the various pumping stations along the

pipeline. As required, the CCO may activate the closure of MLBVs. Once activated, the location of the leak will be found and the cause of the leak rectified. After the leak is repaired, a manual reset at each station will be required.

5.0 SPECIFIC PHILOSOPHIES AND REQUIREMENTS

5.1 Regulatory Approvals 5.1.1 Coordination

The Alberta regional office of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (CEAA) is the Federal Assessment Coordinator for the project. Its role is to coordinate the participation of federal and provincial authorities in the environmental assessment process.

5.1.2 Federal National Energy Board (NEB) The project requires a NEB Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity pursuant to Section 52 of the OPR. The NEB, through the Pipeline Act and the OPR, establishes requirements for pipeline and facilities design, construction and commissioning with a focus on public safety and environmental considerations.

The National Energy Board conducted a public hearing August 8 - 10, 2006. NEB Approval was received October 26, 2006.

Decommissioning of the respective segment of the existing NPS 24 TMPL pipeline will be completed through a subsequent application pursuant to Section 44 of the OPR.

Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) There are 101 watercourses crossings, including three (3) ponds, of which about 40 are determined to be medium to high sensitivity for fish. The occurrence of Harmful Alteration, Disruption or Destruction (HADD) of fish and habitat is anticipated in over 20 watercourses and compensation for no net loss shall be developed and submitted to DFO for their acceptance.

Transport Canada – Navigable Waters Transport Canada (TC) has identified 14 watercourse crossings as being navigable. These will require specific authorizations for pipeline installation and temporary bridging.

Application may be made for temporary installation of one (1) additional access bridge across the Miette River (Approx. KL 395). The access crossing is not within the proximity of the pipeline right-of-way.

Further application will be made as related to the temporary installation of hydrostatic test water piping within waterways.

Parks Canada Parks Canada will act as Lead Responsible Authority (RA) under CEAA. Other RA’s include the NEB, DFO, Transport Canada, Environment Canada, Health Canada, etc.

5.2.4 Project Standards and Specifications Project specific material, equipment, and installation specifications will be developed on an as needed basis. Design of the facilities and roadways shall use existing TMPSE specifications and KMCI standards to the extent practical. The KMCI base standards and TMPSE specifications are listed in Appendix C.

The standards will include an Engineering Records System (ERS), which will be based on KMCI Standard G1100, Rev. 1.

KMCI Drafting Standards will be used. Full-size drawing sets will be ANSI D (22”x34”). Reduced size drawing sets will be B (11”x17”) size.

5.3 Sparing Other than critical spare parts, redundant equipment and inventory spare parts shall not be purchased for the project.

5.4 Future Expansion The pipelines and facilities will be designed to be easily expandable up to the hydraulic capacity of the lines. It is preferable that the equipment chosen for the initial phase of the expansion will be suitable for service through to and including the final phase in terms of hydraulic capacity without replacement and that minimal disruption to pumping is required to upgrade for future phases. Equipment should be selected and designed on a “modular” basis, which can be repeated for subsequent additions required to meet the anticipated flow build-up.

The existing easement through JNP is 6.1 metres wide and will contain TMPL and the proposed loop. Parks Canada have indicated no additional easement will be allowed so where the loop deviates from the TMPL pipeline by more than 4.5 metres centre to centre, the easement is likely to be split so the sum of widths will not exceed 6.1 metres. Opportunity for future looping is limited.

Anchor Loop Project



5.5.2 Pipeline Operating Limits TMPL is a multi-product pipeline system. Shippers nominate individual volumes of crude and refined products to be transported through the pipeline. TMPL accepts all nominations up to the point where the pipeline’s capacity is exceeded. Once nominations exceed the pipeline’s available capacity, all nominations are decreased a proportional amount and the system is said to be operating in apportionment. When the system operates in apportionment for an extended period, TMPL considers expanding its capacity.

To expand the system’s capacity, TMPL canvasses Shippers to determine the types of crude and refined product and the amount of each different fluid that the Shippers plan to transport in the system then determines a target pipeline operating capacity and formulates a batch line-up. The target design capacity is the total of the Shipper’s nominations divided by the “sustainability factor” of 0.95.

The batch line-up is the sequence of different volumes of fluids that will be transported in the pipeline system. The batch line-up employed in the TMPL system is designed to limit the amount of inter-fluid contamination and is based on the following constraints:

• the pipeline operates on a recurring six (6)-day cycle – in order to provide a steady supply of light crude to the Chevron Refinery in Burnaby

• this cycle includes three (3) days of refined products – in order to provide a steady supply of gasoline and diesel fuel to BC

• the cycle also includes three (3) days of crude oil

• super heavy crude batches are included in the three (3) days of crude and is assumed to be 20% of the batch cycle

• super heavy crude batches are limited to a maximum volume of 30,000 m3

Trans Mountain has formulated a target operating capacity of 47,770 m3/d (300,000 bpd) for the batch line-up shown in Table 5.5.2.A.

The TMPL system is licensed for a maximum operating pressure that varies along the pipeline. Minimum suction pressure of the pump stations is set at 350 kPa. The new pump stations will be designed to ANSI 600 (PN100), which will have the capability of discharging at 9,930 kPa. The Anchor Loop will, as a minimum, have a design pressure of 9,930 kPa to match with a high pressure section downstream of the Hinton pump station, which will have an MOP of 10,875 kPa.

5.5.3 Hydraulic Modeling The hydraulic behaviour of multi-product pipelines such as TMPL is more complex than single-product lines because the throughput varies with time as the different batches move through the system. Designing a multi-product pipeline involves hydraulic simulation to ensure that the system can meet a specified time-average throughput for the design batch line-up.

To calculate the time-averaged throughput, hydraulic simulation determines the total time it takes to ship the complete design batch cycle and the methodology must account for the time-varying throughput of the pipeline. Two (2) basic methods available to accomplish this are the fully-transient method and the simpler successive steady-state method.

Two types of analysis have been performed:

• Successive steady-state, and

• Transient

The successive steady-state analysis was used to determine the hydraulic capacity of the pipeline, while the transient analysis was used to consider the effects of upset conditions on the pipeline.

Steady State Analysis A steady-state analysis was performed on the Anchor Loop pipeline. The goal of this analysis was to determine the lowest cost combination of pipeline

diameter, wall thickness, pipeline maximum operating pressure, steel grade, and pump power that will ensure design daily flow rates can be achieved.

A proprietary single-phase, successive steady-state model was used to complete the steady state hydraulic analysis for the pipeline. The maximum discharge pressure of each pump station was set at MOP. The minimum suction pressure at the inlet of each pump station was set at 300 kPa, and the minimum pipeline pressure was set at 150 kPag to prevent slack flow.

Head loss calculations were performed for the pipelines only. Pressure losses within pump stations were assumed and added into the pump power calculations.

Transient Analysis A transient hydraulic analysis has been performed on the Anchor Loop pipeline for the peak flow rate. The goal of the transient analysis was to ensure each pipeline segment can be safely protected under upset conditions.

The transient analysis considered pressure surges created within the pipeline under the following, most severe upset conditions:

• Unplanned closure of a MLBV during ESD

• Unplanned loss of an entire pump station

Pressure surges created within the confines of pump stations and pressure surges within pump stations caused by a MLBV closure were not considered.

The transient analysis provides pressures at critical locations along the pipeline versus time. The critical locations along the pipeline will vary depending on the location of the upset condition, but in general, the critical locations will be at the low elevation points upstream of the upset condition.

The transient analysis:

• Determined if pressure relieving, pressure limiting, or pressure shut-down devices must be installed or if other methods must be considered to ensure the pipeline pressure does not exceed 110% of pipeline MOP under these upset conditions, and

• Determined if special methods must be considered to ensure the pipeline pressure does not fall below 150 kPag under these upset conditions.

5.5.4 Surge Protection The transient analysis of the TMPL system was completed by CIMARRON Engineering Ltd. Results of the analysis indicate that surge protection must be incorporated into most existing stations and all new stations to be constructed. A copy of this analysis will be provided to the EP Consultant(s) selected to work on this project.

As part of the facilities design during detailed engineering, transient analysis shall be performed again to determine if relief valves or over pressure protection is required to protect upstream piping, metering, etc., against surges due to power failure or valve closure.

An appropriate means of surge protection shall be incorporated into the new station design and included in the upgrade work at existing stations as required.

5.5.5 Temperature Differential To avoid any pipeline movements caused by thermal changes from transferring to the facilities piping, large radii bends and pipe loops will be considered during design within the facilities property. Requirements for anchor block or aboveground anchor points will be determined by completing a stress analysis during detailed design.

5.5.6 Electrical Design Considerations Mainline pump motors on the line will have a 1.15 service factor, which may be used under some conditions. VFDs must be capable of allowing motors to be run at full-service factor power from normal on-line operating speed to 110% of synchronous speed. Pump and motor speed range required is expected to be 40% to 110% of synchronous speed (e.g. 1,440 rpm to 3,960 rpm for a nominal 3,600 rpm motor). This means motors will most likely need to be stiff shafted, highly damped and critical, or of a special design.

5.5.7 Power Facility power requirements shall be met by a combination strategy of existing power supply, new distribution lines, and new transmission lines.

The preferred power strategy at Wolf, Chappel, and Hargreaves facilities shall reflect the anticipated lifetime of these facilities (about three (3) years).

5.5.8 Constructability The following techniques will be used during the design process to ensure the optimal constructability of designs:

• Participation by construction personnel in the design process and during regular constructability reviews

• Regular interface meetings between the Pipeline Consultant, KMCI, and the Facilities Consultant design teams.

• Incorporation of appropriate levels of modularization

• Use of 3D design tools

• Incorporation of lessons learned from the original TMPL construction process.

site shall contain all components required to fully commission, operate the upstream sections of pipeline loop, and transfer product into TMPL until such time that the downstream section of loop is built and readied for service. The precise location for the crossover is to be determined. The design shall consider the future need to provide an in-line connection between upstream and downstream sections of pipeline loop.

5.6 Control, SCADA, and Communications 5.6.1 Station Control

Pump station control systems will be based on programmable logic controller (PLC) hardware. PLC systems will consist of a Data Concentrator PLC, a Station PLC and a Flow Computer PLC, where applicable. Each pump unit will be controlled through a dedicated I/O rack communicating on a Control Net with Station PLC. Flow computers will be used to provide custody transfer measurement and meter proving control. Level of integration and redundancy with existing PLC system will be considered during detailed design.

Station control shall be a low select Proportional and Integral (PI) system controlling station suction pressure, station discharge pressure, or station kilowatts simultaneously, automatically selecting the control variable. PI control functions will be done by the station PLC in the same manner as existing TMPL facilities. Start-and-Stop commands and setpoints for the PI system will originate either from the SCADA system or from the local HMI.

Station local control systems will consist of:

• Fire and gas detection

• Process alarming and ESD of each pump unit

• Pump control

Pump Station Control

• Station suction pressure (pump cavitation protection) will be provided as a control variable under program control in the PLC. The PLC program will ensure suction pressure is maintained within preset limits to ensure safe operation of the pump.

• Station discharge pressure control will be provided by redundant station discharge pressure transmitters, located downstream of the station discharge block valve. The pressure transmitters will ensure the maximum discharge pressure is in accordance with the licensed MOP. The recommended maximum discharge pressure controller set point will be based on licensed MOP for each site. If pressure control through the operation of the VFD is unable to prevent the discharge pressure from exceeding the station discharge pressure set point, the station PLC will initiate a unit quick stop (no shutdown sequence).

• If Station Kilowatts (kW consumption) increase over the kW setpoint, the controller will limit power consumption at the pump station by reducing pump speed.

Automated Mainline Block Valve Sites Control Remote valve site control requirements shall be integrated with central control center operations and defined during detailed design.

5.6.2 SCADA All facilities shall be monitored from either the Primary Control Centre (PCC) located in Sherwood Park, Alberta, or the Secondary Control Center (SCC) in south Edmonton using a SCADA system; the precise monitoring location for each facility shall be determined during detailed design HAZOPS.

Database points and new graphic display screens will also be added to support the new sites. The leak detection system and the operator simulator / trainer will also be modified.

The SCADA system and supporting communications system infrastructure will build upon the existing system and will be expanded to accommodate the new instrumentation and control signals for the new MLBVs. SCADA system modifications and communications will be arranged by KMCI. SCADA equipment shall be suitably enclosed.

Database points and new graphic display screens will also be added to support the new sites. The leak detection system and the operator simulator / trainer will also be modified.

The SCADA system will interface with the station Data Concentrator PLC. Local monitoring and control of the facility will consist of a PLC control system and dedicated LOI. Capacity of the existing Telvent (formerly Metso, previously Valmet) SCADA system will be evaluated during detailed engineering phase. New SCADA I/O points and screens will be programmed into existing system to accommodate control of new devices.

The final SCADA system will provide the Control Room Operators with ability to:

• Acquire data and remotely monitor pipeline facilities and MLBVs

• Remotely open and close pump station valves and MLBVs

• Change set points of station controllers

• Initiate pump start or stop sequences

• Initiate Emergency Shut Down (ESD) of the pump stations

5.6.3 Telecommunications Systems Telecommunications systems will provide communications to the following:

• Pump stations, terminal facilities, and scraper trap sites

• MLBV locations

• The Edmonton Control Center

• Maintenance personnel along the pipeline

Existing telecommunication system will be used where possible; and if necessary, new equipment will be added to accommodate new facilities.

5.7 Corrosion Control 5.7.1 Coatings

Facility equipment, piping, and tanks will be coated externally to project coating standards.

Following KMCI’s standards, facility piping and equipment coatings will be chosen based on:

• adhesion,

• toughness during handling,

• suitability for repair,

• operating temperature,

• historical performance,

• cost, and

• availability.

Joint coatings will be suitable for easy field application and compatible with shop-applied coating. Additional considerations will include ambient application conditions, preheat, and drying time requirements.

Piping that is exposed to the atmosphere (such as at valve assemblies) will be protected from external corrosion by the application of a protective coating, such as paint.

Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE) has been selected for external coating of the buried pipeline. An additional abrasion resistant coating will be applied to all pipe that will be installed by trenchless methods. The pipe will not be internally coated.

Field weld joints will be coated with brush or roller applied two-part liquid epoxy after sandblasting Utilization of automated field applied liquid epoxy systems will be investigated.

Anchor Loop Project



Other components such as valves and fabricated assemblies that are shop fabricated will be sandblasted and coated as per KMCI specifications.

FBE coating that is exposed to the sun will deteriorate with time. Storage conditions will be appraised and coated pipe that is at risk of UV damage will be white-washed or an alternative protection will be put in place.

5.7.2 Cathodic Protection (CP) External coating combined with CP will provide corrosion control. CP will meet standard practices and consist of impressed current and sacrificial anodes. CP will be installed and activated as soon as possible after pipe installation to provide maximum corrosion protection. All new installations will be integrated into the existing TMPL system.

CP designs will consider the following:

• Length of the system and segments

• Coating specifications

• Locations of stations and MLBVs

• Soil analysis

• Water table

• Proximity to other utilities

• Insulation from reinforced concrete

• Locations and performance of existing TMPL anodes and rectifiers

• Availability of AC power

Some of the issues that the design will also address are:

• paralleling existing pipelines with CP systems operated by others,

• paralleling AC power lines, and

• special situations where additional CP technologies such as zinc ribbons would be required and appropriate.

Test lead locations will generally match existing locations and will be placed on all pipeline crossings where approved by the pipeline owners. Test leads will also be placed on both sides of primary highway crossings for safety reasons so that KMCI operations personnel by allowing CP readings to be taken without the need to cross the travel lanes

5.8 Maintenance Facilities will be designed to allow for efficient in-situ equipment maintenance.

In general, the types of equipment that will require mechanical lifts will be motors, pump casings and internals, valves, valve operators and internals, meters and internals, and cleaning and inspection tools The cost of installed lifting equipment and truck loading areas will be weighed against the cost for mobilizing other internal or external equipment over the life of the facilities.

In cases where noise, safety, containment, or other considerations result in the requirement for shelters at facilities, the additional cost of shelter hatches to allow for the use of third-party cranes will be determined for the analysis.

The relative costs of installed versus off-site lifting equipment during construction will also be considered.

5.9 Health and Safety 5.9.1 Work Environment and Hygiene

Facilities will provide an appropriately comfortable and hygienic work environment. In addition to natural ventilation, forced ventilation, heating, and air conditioning will be considered to control temperature to appropriate levels for the work to be undertaken at various facilities. Area and task lighting will be suitable for the work to be carried out.

Office and other workspaces will be reasonably sized for their intended frequency and duration of use. Desks, filing cabinets, and other furnishings will be suitable for the work to be carried out and the materials to be stored.

Washrooms will be provided at all pump station sites. As a minimum, this shall include a toilet and hand-cleaning facility as well as an emergency shower.

5.9.2 Safety All facilities will provide a safe working environment in accordance with OHSA requirements and KMCI safety practices.

All buildings will be ventilated in accordance with electrical classification requirements.

Safety will be a significant consideration in the layout and features of facilities. Guards with handrails will be provided at all elevated structures. Where frequent access is required, stairways will provide the primary access to elevated structures. “Side-step” ladders will be considered for elevated structures requiring infrequent access or for secondary accesses. Multiple access and escape routes will be provided for large areas. Where possible, “walking” clearance will be provided under elevated structures. Confined spaces will be minimized. Guards will be provided for all exposed rotating equipment and for equipment operating at high temperatures. Suitable warning signs will be posted for these and other hazards.

Fire, smoke, combustible gas detectors, and other safety related sensors and alarms will be provided.

5.10 Environmental Responsibility 5.10.1 Facilities

The pump station and scraper trap facilities will be designed in a manner that minimizes the risk of spills during construction, operations, and maintenance.

A list of all environmental issues that may affect the pump station and scraper trap facilities will be developed along with an assessment of short and long-term impact, risk, and consequences.

Leak / spill containment will be provided at each facility. The containment volumes will be determined based on an assessment of anticipated leak / spill volumes and frequencies, detection capabilities, response times, and capital cost. Consideration will be given to the need for secondary containment (the first level of containment outside the process system) and tertiary containment (back-up to the secondary containment).

Inverted weirs, oil separators, and other devices may be considered for containment systems that also retain and discharge surface or rainwater.

Flanges will not be buried.

5.10.2 Pipeline Loop The lands within JNP and MRPP are restored to a state as per filed reclamation plans.

Environmentally Significant Sites The route traverses, or is near a number of areas with significant environmental or socio-economic importance. Special construction techniques or design considerations may be required at each of these locations. Appendix D contains additional description and information.

Table 5.10.2.A - Environmentally Significant Sites Jasper National Park Pocahontas Ponds (KP333) Athabasca River (KP 336) Snaring Warden Station Grass lands adjacent to Station Palisades Training Centre Grasslands southeast of Centre. Municipality of Jasper and vicinity

The route traverses land near the town of Jasper. Sections are extremely congested. In this area, the pipeline is generally in the shoulder of Highway 16.

The Montane Eco Region This wildlife critical region covers 7% of the park. Declared Wilderness Areas

The National Parks Act, by regulation, provides for the declaration, of wilderness areas within the park. A high level of ecological integrity is synonymous with wilderness. The intent of the wilderness declaration is to assist in ensuring a high level of ecological integrity by preventing activities likely to impair wilderness character. The perpetuation of ecosystems with minimal human interference is the key consideration in maintaining wilderness character. The only development or activities allowed are those for essential services and the protection of the park resources. Declaring wilderness areas is one of a range of tools that is used to ensure the preservation of wilderness value. Human use levels in declared wilderness areas will be managed based on landscape management unit objectives and human use strategies. Maps of these areas are available on the internet as described in Appendix E. Therefore, the loop is aligned entirely outside these Wilderness Areas and all construction and operational activities are to be restricted outside of the Wilderness Areas as well.

Mount Robson Provincial Park Travel Corridor Management Zone in Mt. Robson Park.

The existing route lies within the 400 m wide Travel Corridor Management Zone. Park officials are becoming increasingly concerned about the number of accidental wildlife kills in this zone on the highway and railway. One mitigation technique identified is to increase the pipeline right-of-way’s attractiveness to wildlife in the hope that they would stay off of the highway and railway.

Wildlife Protection TERA / Westland Environmental will identify areas where the occurrence of endangered or rare species must be considered for the design of appropriate mitigation.

Fish Qualified Aquatic Environmental Specialist (QUAES) studies will be provided by TERA / Westland Environmental.

Right-of-Way restoration shall include provisions for fish habitat enhancement, as per the EPP.

Final size and depth of all foundations shall be based on the recommendations of the soils report and the latest edition of the applicable local building codes

6.3 Hydraulic Analysis The steady-state analysis considered the mainline hydraulics for the pipelines and results are within the CIMARRON Hydraulic Analysis Report, Appendix G. The pipeline design pressure is 9,990 kPa except for a section between KL 322.8 and 343.8 where it was increased to 10,875 kPa to allow for hydraulic head as this section is in a low-point on the pipeline relative to Hinton Pump Station. The design pressure sections are show in Table 6.4.8.B. The analysis showed a peak flow rate of 350,000 bpd is achievable with no heavy crude. The target operating capacity of 300,000 bpd was achievable for the design considerations in Section 5.5.

6.3.1 Refinement of the Hydraulic Modeling The hydraulic analysis reported in Appendix G, includes further consideration of the properties of the super heavy crude using a viscosity of 350 cSt @ 7.5°C reference temperature in winter with 2°C ground temperature and 5°C fluid pipeline inlet temperature in Edmonton. This additional analysis shows that the TMPSE Project or Anchor Loop Project cannot meet their target operating capacity of 260,000 bpd and 300,000 bpd, respectively. To achieve the operating capacity of 300,000 bpd, another pump station was added to the TMPSE Project at Blue River for a total of 11 pump stations. In addition, further analysis was done on connecting the

The line pipe material and associated fittings will be selected in accordance with a maximum design stress level of 80% of Specified Minimum Yield Strength (SMYS). This maximum design stress level will be reduced as required by regulations at specific locations, such as uncased railway crossings and underneath roads based on fatigue analysis.

Following negotiations with representatives of JNP, the NPS 36 pipe installed through the park shall be subject to additional testing of pipe body and seam weld to demonstrate notch toughness properties consistent with that required for Category II pipe.

The additional testing includes:

• On one (1) pipe from each heat of steel produced and applied to the order, the following will be performed:

− One (1) set of Charpy V-notch test specimens, prepared from the parent material of the pipe as outlined for body tests in CSA Z 245.1-02, will be subjected to testing at a temperature of -5°C, results to be reported for information only.

− One (1) set of Drop Weight Tear Test specimens, prepared from the parent material as outlined in Clauses 7.7.1 and 7.7.2 of CSA Z 245.1-02, will be subjected to testing at a temperature of -5°C, results to be reported for information only

• On every tenth pipe referenced above (i.e. from every tenth heat), and as agreed to in earlier correspondence, the following will also be performed:

− One (1) set of Charpy V-notch test specimens, prepared from the deposited weld metal of the longitudinal seam as outlined in Clause 8.5.1 of CSA Z 245.1-02, will be subjected to testing at a temperature of -5°C, results to be reported for information only.

− One (1) set of Charpy V-notch test specimens, prepared from the heat-affected zone of the longitudinal seam, will be subjected to testing at a temperature of -5°C, results to be reported for information only.

6.4.5 Wall Thickness The formula in Clause 4.3.3.1.1 of CSA Z662 will be used to determine the minimum wall thickness of the line pipe used for the pipeline loop. Stresses will be calculated to determine any restrictions on installation temperatures.

Additionally, the pipeline loop will contain short lengths of heavy-wall pipe as required for crossings of roads, railways and major streams. The exact allocation of heavy-wall will be determined during the detailed design phase.

Welding Automatic welding (Gas Metal Arc Welding - GMAW) will be used as much as possible for mainline welding, where cost effective.

Manual or stick welding (Shielded Metal Arc Welding - SMAW or Flux-Core Arc Welding - FCAW) will be used for tie-ins and where it is not practical to use automatic welding systems.

NDE Non-destructive inspection (radiographic inspection or ultrasonic inspection) shall be in accordance with CSA Z662-03 and KMCI Specification TMX1-MP3903, NDE/NDT.

Non-destructive examination (NDE) of the welds will be done with ultrasonics (UT) or radiography (X-Ray). Both may be used, but for purposes of best flaw identification the preferred methods are given in the following table.

Table 6.4.10.A - NDE Options Welding Method Preferred NDE Automatic (GMAW) UT Manual (SMAW, FCAW) X-Ray or UT

All welds shall be subject to 100% NDT inspection. However, welds that cannot be so inspected shall be inspected by pre-approved alternative procedures such as dye penetrant, magnetic particle or ultrasonic methods.

6.4.11 Depth of Cover The minimum specified pipe cover for buried pipe is listed in Table 6.4.11.A.

Boring will be the preferred method for pipeline installation at road and railway crossings.

6.4.13 Water Crossings The watercourses vary from wide rivers with extensive floodplains to intermittent drainage channels. All water crossings, except some ponds, will have a site-specific crossing design or refer to typical single or double sag crossing designs.

From a construction perspective, KMCI defines:

• Significant Water Crossings as requiring a site-specific design drawing

• Minor Water Crossings as not requiring a site-specific drawing but, instead, are represented by an appropriate typical drawing

Buried Facilities Typically, foreign crossings will be crossed under.

Power lines The owners of power lines will be consulted to determine voltages, potential hazards, and if temporary raising of the line is required. Written crossing agreements will be acquired.

Cased Crossings It is intended not to use cased crossings. However, for highway crossings that cannot be conventionally bored, extra large diameter hammered casing may be used with the pipeline well separated from the casing pipe and no end seal installed.

Cased crossings would be sealed and completely filled with a material such as gel or wax. All cased crossing designs will be reviewed by Cathodic Protection designers.

6.4.18 Parallel Power Line Relocations Four (4) sections of power lines require relocation to eliminate the construction hazard and to provide additional workspace for construction. Power line relocations have been requested of the utility service providers at:

• Sleepy Hollow Road at Intersection of Hwy 93 (KL 379)

• Wynd Road (KL 379-KL 382.5)

• Sucker Creek (KL 372-KL 373), and

• KL 461-KL 466.

Power lines will be moved by utility owner.

6.4.19 Parallel Fibre Optic Cable Relocation Arrangements will be made to remove the Telus Fibre Optic Cable from KL 403 to KL 405 to facilitate construction. During construction, signals will be temporarily rerouted through a nearby 360 Networks cable. A replacement fibre optics line is to be laid into the pipeline ditch through the interval between appropriate cable splice points. Due to potential damages from pipeline construction, the section of fibre optics cable between about KL 396 and KL 405 shall be subsequently tested for continuity and suitably repaired as may be required.

6.4.20 Rock Rock Coatings Coatings, such as Rock Jacket (flexible concrete coating), wood lagging, and dual powder abrasion coatings, will be selected to provide protection in rocky areas.

Rock Shield Rock shield will be applied in the field where backfill materials contain sharp rock, which may damage the pipe coating.

Anchor Loop Project



Rock shield, such as Tuff’N’Uff, shall be permeable to water to avoid insulating the FBE coating from moisture in the soil.

Padding Field installed padding may include foam pillows, select backfill, sand, and clay padding. Select backfill will be used whenever practical.

Blasting Suitable protection measures will be employed to protect existing pipeline, rail line, and other infrastructure. Controlled blasting procedures will be designed for each specific circumstance and monitored during construction. The potential application of blasting techniques is described within the Blasting Report in Appendix I.

6.4.21 Cathodic Protection External corrosion on the pipeline loop will be mitigated by using a combination of external pipeline coatings and CP.

CP will be supplied to the pipeline loop by approximately 16 impressed current groundbeds located along the pipeline. Nine (9) of these groundbeds currently exist and provide cathodic current to the existing TMPL. Approximately seven (7) new groundbeds will be added to supplement protection to the existing pipeline and to provide the additional current required by the pipeline loop. The number of new groundbeds, type, and specific site locations will be determined during the detailed design phase. The table below identifies the CP facilities to be utilized for the pipeline loop.

The CP system will be common to both the existing pipeline and the pipeline loop as it is the most economic approach and avoid potential interference effects that could result if cathodic protection was applied separately to TMPL and the loop.

The pipeline loop will be connected to the existing CP system by:

• the installation of bond cables between existing and new pipelines at each end of the pipeline loop and at other discrete points as required;

• the attachment, if possible, of rectifier negative cables to the pipeline loop at all grounded locations;

• changes and additions will be made to some of the existing groundbeds due to;

• the increased current demands of the pipeline loop;

• the need to provide sufficient separation between anodes and pipelines; and

• the life expectancy of existing anodes.

Test stations will be attached to the pipeline loop at locations approximating those on the existing TMPL, as well as other locations as needed. Test stations will have a maximum spacing of 5 km.

6.4.22 Buoyancy Control The Anchor Loop traverses sections of wet, and / or muskeg-type terrain requiring some form of buoyancy control. Screw anchors shall be considered if there are favourable anchoring conditions and sufficiently long intervals to be economically viable. Care will be taken to ensure they will have sufficient hold down capacity for voided pipe.

Where the muskeg is shallower than the depth of the ditch, set-on or saddle weights may be used when the weight rests on competent mineral soil.

Date: 2007-06-12

Anchor Loop Project



For water crossings and ditches full of water, buoyancy control shall be by bolt-on concrete weights, continuous-concrete coating, or strap-on saddlebags.

The pipeline will be weighted to produce negative buoyancy for empty pipe of at least 5 %. Care will be taken in design to avoid overweighting the pipe in soft bottom sites to prevent excessive sinking of the pipeline.

6.4.23 Geotechnical Design Design for potentially unstable slopes will be given special consideration. Side hill springs have been identified at KP439.4 through KP440.4. Sidehill cuts will be limited to eliminate precipitating instability. Geotechnical assessments will be made of sidehills to identify areas of potential instability. As required, specific designs will be developed.

6.4.24 Hydrostatic Testing Hydrostatic testing will be conducted in accordance with KMCI Specification TMX1-MP4121, Mainline Hydrostatic Test Procedure, or subsequent revision.

6.4.25 Constructability Review Constructability will be ensured by including construction personnel in the design and design reviews.

6.4.26 Right-of-Way (ROW) Routing The route for the pipeline loop was selected, based on the following criteria:

• Minimization of impact to the environment

• Minimization of new linear disturbance; therefore, existing disturbances such as TMPL route, other right-of-ways, roads, etc; were followed as much as possible

• Minimization of water crossings and wetland disturbance

• Minimize width of right-of-way

• Construction Practicality

Joining RoW’s 1 % Chainage For construction and design drawings and construction documents, slack chainage stations will be used with Stn 0+000 at the upstream end of the pipeline loop.

Stn 0+000 is at the west fence line of the Hinton Scraper Trap site in line with the NPS 30 trap. The equivalent KP is KP 310.0.

KPs and KLs “KPs” are the kilometre posts for TMPL.

“KLs” are kilometre post labels for TMX. They do not represent actual distances. The KLs match KPs where they are adjacent and are “rubber-sheeted” elsewhere to keep the same number of KLs as KPs, i.e.:

• Where the loop is adjacent to TMPL, the KLs will coincide exactly to the KP locations.

• Where the loop is not adjacent to TMPL, the KLs will be assigned to the loop by prorating the distance along TMPL to the distance along TMX and spacing the KL locations accordingly. This technique will be referred to as “rubber sheeting”.

6.4.27 Route Information Elevation Profile and Static Hydrostatic Head Approximate profile data was acquired early and the information is included within Appendix J. The centreline has since been more accurately surveyed and has been compiled within the Plan, Profile Book of Reference drawings submitted to the NEB. The new profile has been compressed and is included in Appendix N containing the Valve Section Draindown Assessment Review.

Table 6.4.29.A - Construction Footprint Typical Footprint Width Alberta 35 m Jasper National Park 25 m Mount Robson Provincial Park 30 m British Columbia 33 m

Jasper National Park Within JNP, legal boundaries are generally not available for roads, rails, and other features, outside of the Municipality of Jasper. Much of the routing is, therefore, based on distances from rail tracks, TMPL, edges of pavement, and other physical features.

In JNP, the existing TMPL right-of-way is 6.1 m (20 feet) wide, within which the location of the pipe is variable and may not lie entirely within the legal right-of-way. The legal boundary for TMPL has been reconstructed based on the 1953 legal survey and the TMPL ILI location has been overlain.

It is expected that the existing easement area within Jasper will not be increased and the lands will have to be split into two (2) separate right-of-ways where the loop and TMPL deviate. Wherever the loop and TMPL lay adjacent to one another, they will be generally separated 4.5 m, centre-to-centre, in order to reposition the 6.1 m right-of-way around both pipelines. Elsewhere, the project follows other existing right-of-ways / easements (legal or otherwise), roads or disturbances.

Mount Robson Provincial Park In MRPP, the existing TMPL right-of-way is 18.28 m (60 ft) wide, within which the location of the pipe is variable and may not lie entirely within the legal right-of-way.

How the new legal right-of-way for the loop will be defined has not yet been concluded. It is likely that the existing area within MRPP will not be increased and the lands will have to be split between the two right-of-ways. Wherever possible, the loop is proposed to lie 8 m from TMPL, centre-to-centre, in order to reposition the 18.28 m right-of-way around both pipelines. Elsewhere, the loop follows other existing right-of-ways / easements (legal or otherwise), roads, or disturbances.

Much of the loop follows CN Rail’s right-of-way; and CN lands will be used for workspace, with the pipeline being generally installed either immediately inside or immediately outside CN property.

Construction is not allowed within MRPP. Therefore, the lands required for construction must be removed temporarily from the park, requiring an Act of the British Columbia Legislature, and returned to the park following construction. The construction space required for the installation of the loop has been identified early, so that the lands can be removed from MRPP for the duration of the construction. These are referred to as the “Robson Lands”, within the project.

Anchor Loop Project



The lands for removal or “Robson Lands” have been precisely defined through the preparation of legal drawings. All subsequent design and construction plans must be developed such that all disturbances and construction activities remain within the “Robson Lands”.

Alberta (Outside Jasper National Park) The proposed right-of-way lies entirely on Crown Land within Alberta.

The proposed Cougar Ridge Resort lies along the right-of-way near the Hinton Airport Road, KL312.3.

The TMPL right-of-way is 18.28 m (60 ft) wide. The loop right-of-way is to be 18.28 m to 20 m wide.

Portions of the loop construction footprint will overlap ATCO’s abutting right-of-way. Approval from ATCO will be required for use of these lands.

British Columbia (Outside Mount Robson Provincial Park) The proposed right-of-way lies mostly on Crown Land within British Columbia and is to be generally 18.28 m wide.

The TMPL right-of-way is 18.28 m (60 ft) wide. The loop is typically aligned 23 m to 28 m from TMPL in this section.

Extra Work Space (EWS) Various lengths of temporary workspace, from 5 to 30 m in width, have been identified for:

• spoil piles, storage, and general workspace; and

• truck turnarounds, etc.

At other locations, extra workspace will be required to minimize adverse impacts on streams, water bodies, historical resources, and individual landowners.

6.4.30 Construction Sites Construction sites have been identified for:

• Stockpile sites for pipe,

• Borrow Pits for sand and padding,

• Work Camps,

• RV Trailer Parks,

• Contractor Yards, and

6.4.31 Construction Access All construction access routes off common public access have been identified. Some upgrades will be required:

• Widening for vehicle passage, such as at Windy Point;

• Brushing corners for visibility;

• Bridges to accommodate construction traffic (Emperor Bridge on Hargreaves Road);

• Bridge at Derr Creek – a temporary bridge will be installed for construction;

• The existing Snaring Bridge and the Decoigne Bridge have been evaluated for maximum load capacities – the reports are included in Appendix L; and

• A temporary bridge across the Miette River, at KL402.3, may be required for construction traffic.

6.4.32 Post Construction Clean Up Final clean up will be conducted according to the requirements of the EPP and to ensure the sites disturbed during construction will be left in a state at least as good as when they were first identified.

Pipeline Markers All regulatory authorities require pipelines to be posted with ownership, and emergency contact information. Signage will be developed that meets the requirements of all regulatory bodies, and where specific requirements for the signs are not given, the Alberta Pipeline Regulation requirements will be used.

Pipeline warning signs will be installed at suitable locations, such as:

• Highway and road crossings,

• Water crossings,

• Rail crossings,

• Facility crossings, and

• Fence lines as required by landowners and authorities.

Warning signs at rivers and creeks will be in accordance with the Navigable Waters Protection Act.

Pipeline warning balls shall be installed on overhead power lines as required.

Aerial Markers Aerial markers will be installed at KL points to aid in reconnaissance of the loop by patrol aircraft, on the loop’s right-of-way, where significant deviations from the existing right-of-way occur.

Anchor Loop Project



Aerial markers will not be placed in sections where the pipeline directly abuts a highway.

Operational Access Unless otherwise directed by regulators and the EPP, it is preferred that access routes be left along the right-of-way for operators and maintenance personnel to the extent that this is physically practical and with due consideration of regulatory requirements and environmental requirements identified in the EPP.

Permanent access will be in accordance with Emergency Response Plans (ERP) and requirements for control points, MLBVs, etc. Control points will be suitable for deployment of oil spill containment and recovery equipment.

Access to the right-of-ways will use existing roads, trails, and segments of the new right-or-way, as required. Access to the right-of-way will be gated or otherwise blocked to avoid creating new public access.

Land Owners Existing land owners, such as Municipality of Jasper, Pocahontas Lodge, Robson Ranch, and identified developments, such as Cougar Ridge Resort, will be taken into consideration in the restoration of the construction footprint, construction sites, and access.

6.4.33 Facility Tie-Ins All tie-ins will facilitate internal pigging.

Hinton Scraper Trap Tie In The upstream tie-in point is at KP 310.0 , which is immediately downstream of the NPS 30 Block Valve 30 N (valve label),

The existing Hinton Trap facility at KP 310.0 will be decommissioned with the equipment being removed to the extent of minimizing maintenance and maximizing reuse at the new scraper traps.

Hinton Pump Station Tie In The NPS 30 loop will terminate at the Hinton Pump Station, at a receiver trap. The NPS 36 loop will originate at the Hinton Pump Station, at a launcher.

Jasper Pump Station Tie In The loop will pass through the Jasper Pump Station yard and shall be tied into the facility as required.

Hargreaves Pig Trap Tie In A NPS 36 pig launcher will be installed at the end of the loop at KP 468.0, on the south side of the right-of-way. Design and construction of the loop will end at the upstream end of the NPS 36 receiver assembly.

NPS 30 and NPS 36), Jasper Pump Station (NPS 36), and Hargreaves Trap Site (NPS 36).

6.5 Valve Sites 11 gate valves and seven (7) check valves (including one (1) at Jasper Pump Station) will be installed along the loop. Additional valves will be required at the Hinton Pump Station and the Hargreaves Scraper Trap Site. Automation of an existing NPS 30 MLBV is also required at KP.310.0

Power, civil, and mechanical ancillary facilities required at the valve sites will also be installed. Gate and check valves have been selected as sectionalizing valves. Pipeline design will consider requirements of MLBV sites, in terms of space and locations, and their impact on side bend locations and design, cover requirements, etc.

6.5.1 Gate Valve Sites Gate valves will have valve actuators serviced by utility-supplied power where available, or by an alternative, reliable, low maintenance DC/AC power source where utility-supplied power is impractical.

Gate valves will be full-flow through conduit slab in accordance with CSA Z245.15. All design specifications will be established during the detailed design phase.

Automated Gate Valve Assembly Each gate valve assembly will have pipe risers (NPS 4 or sized as required for flooding and subsequent operations) on either side complete with isolation valves and by-pass piping. Bypass valves will normally be closed. The valve assemblies will be prefabricated from “rail wall” (20.8mm WT) pipe. Two (2) joints of heavy wall pipe will be installed at each valve location. Valves will be installed after the pipeline has been hydrostatically tested.

Valves shall be fitted with electric motor operators as per KMCI specifications.

Power Block valve sites will be serviced by 240 VAC single-phase utility-supplied power. Actual power supply will depend on availability.

Where grid access power supply is impractical, reliable, low-maintenance DC/AC power source will be integrated into the design. The system will consist of battery, solar, and gen-set arrangements sized to provide all necessary power for all lighting, actuator, and heating requirements.

Additional components will include:

• Transformer (as required by site)

• Power receptacle (for connection to auxiliary power)

Communications The TMPL system is monitored and controlled by the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system and the PCC in Edmonton, Alberta.

A Motorola Moscad data radio system complete with tower or standard pipe antennas (as required by site for the locations where direct connection to Telecom service providers is not possible) will be installed at each site.

KMCI has Industry Canada licensed frequencies in the Jasper / Valemount area set aside for this opportunity.

Voice and Data Communications Adequate provisions for field communications shall be in place throughout construction and for valve site monitoring and control during operation of the loop.

SCADA primary communications will be provided using the preferable 56k Telus frame relay; however, where installation costs are prohibitive, satellite based communications will be used. The local industrial network will be Allen Bradley Controlnet.

Data Communications hardware shall be of sufficient bandwidth to support integration with Citrix systems.

Pump Station Communications Both Wolf and Chappel pump stations will have four (4) telephone lines connected to the public service telephone network (PSTN). One (1) line will be dedicated to standard voice communications. The second line, connected to a modem, will be used for SCADA backup communications. The third line, connected to an Ethernet network modem, will be used for remote access to PLC and HMI information.

The fourth line shall be dedicated to network computing.

Hinton Scraper Trap Facility Communications Hinton Scraper Trap facility communication requirements shall be integrated with existing communication hardware at the Hinton Pump Station.

Hargreaves Scraper Trap Facility Communications Moscad radio systems described below shall be considered.

As an alternative, The Hinton Scraper Trap facility shall have three (3) telephone lines connected to the public service telephone network (PSTN). One (1) line will be dedicated to standard voice communications. The second line, connected to a modem, will be used for SCADA backup communications. The third line, connected to an Ethernet network modem, will be used for remote access to PLC and HMI information.

Mainline MOV Block Valve Sites Communications Each of the block valves will communicate via radio, with an MCP-M (Master) located at the nearest pump station. This Master communicates with the Data concentrator PLC, then Frame relay circuits and onto CCO. The Moscad master communicates via VHF licensed frequencies to a strategically placed “repeater or relay” station on a mountain or large hill. This repeater station location usually has “line-of-sight” paths to its intended block valves to ensure reliable communications. This repeater relays the signal to the intended block valves.

6.5.2 Check Valve Sites Check valves will be full port, weld end and piggable in accordance with CSA Z245.15. These will be installed at suitable locations such as the downstream side of major river crossings where generally ascending topography is favourable for a check valve function. Check valves shall be fitted with manual gear operators. All design specifications will be established during the detailed design phase.

Check Valve Assembly Each check valve assembly will have pipe risers (NPS 4) on either side complete with isolation valves and by-pass piping. The valve assemblies will be prefabricated from “rail wall” (20.8mm WT) pipe.

1.0 m or less of “rail-wall” (20.8 mm WT) pipe will be attached to each side of the pre-fabricated valve sections.

Two joints of heavy wall pipe will be installed at each valve location. Valves will be installed after the pipeline has been hydrostatically tested.

6.5.3 Valve Site Location Criteria The location of MLBV sites along the pipeline loop was first determined in accordance with Clause 4.4, Valve Location and Spacing, of CSA Z662. Additionally, in order to limit the consequences associated with a pipeline leak and for pipeline maintenance flexibility, additional valves were added at strategic locations along the pipeline loop’s route. The following were considered in selecting the MLBV locations:

• topography

• the location of environmentally sensitive features and terrain

• population

• accessibility of electrical power

• draindown calculation modelling (Report is included in Appendix M).

A review of the draindown model was performed with more accurate elevation data and with consideration to a proposal from Parks Canada to add valves. The recommendations from the report are presently under consideration. The report is in Appendix N.

The following table summarizes the locations and types of MLBVs proposed for the Project and indicate the primary function of each. The locations may be adjusted slightly to optimize the location and minimize aesthetic impacts. The table below identifies 14 remotely-operated valve sites and seven (7) check valves.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SIGNIFICANT SITES

JASPER NATIONAL PARK THE MONTANE ECO-REGION

Covering only about seven per cent of the park, the Montane Eco-region is critical for wildlife. Warmer, drier winters and a relatively light snowpack offer some relief from harsh winter conditions at higher elevations.

These lower elevation areas on the lower slopes and bottoms of large valleys are important wildlife corridors especially during the fall, winter and spring.

This area is, however, also popular with visitors and most of the park’s development is centred in the Montane—the community of Jasper, the Yellowhead Trans-Canada Highway, the CN railway and most OCAs and park facilities. Because of previous infrastructure development, it is not possible to put the Montane eco-region within a single zone for protection purposes. The Montane area is shown on the zoning map (Map 2) to draw attention to the limited amount of Montane land that remains undeveloped, and to ensure decisions take into account the limited nature of this important eco-region.

Parks Canada will continue to emphasize the importance of maintaining the integrity and critical ecological role of the Montane. Actions will include research, restoration, human use management, and public education.

POCAHONTAS PONDS

The wetlands of the Athabasca floodplain near Pocahontas are known locally as the Pocahontas Ponds. This area of small ponds and active and dead stream channels is very important to wildlife. The area provides critical winter range for elk and moose and is also important to small mammals. Carnivores are attracted by these prey species. Numerous bird species occur in high densities, many of which are not found elsewhere in the parks. Raptors such as osprey and bald eagle nest here. The area also provides habitat for the river otter, a species which is rare in the park.

Any major construction in the area (e.g., roads) will change sedimentation and erosion patterns. Care must be taken that any development and use do not have a negative impact on the area’s special resources.

WILDERNESS AREA

JASPER NATIONAL PARK

Internet site http://canadagazette.gc.ca/partI/1999/19991106/html/regle-e.html is a public site to access the Declared Wilderness maps for Jasper National Park. This corresponds to the Zone II Wilderness areas in the Jasper Management Plan. In reviewing these 1:50,000 scale maps against TMPL's existing right-of-way, there are 24.7 km of the 80 km in the Park, where TMPL was used as the wilderness boundary. There is a 25m offset from existing RoW centerline.

The following approximate KP ranges are where TMPL borders the wilderness boundary: 333.0 to 336.3; 339.3 to 340.8; 342.0 to 343.2; 343.7 to 345.2; 348.1 to 350.5; 352.8 to 353.8; 354.5 to 366.0; 399.9 to 402.2.

From east to west, the TMPL Alignment Sheets that cover the Trans Mountain route in Jasper are:

• 83903 Miette 83F/4

• 83919 Snaring River 83E/1

• 83913 Jasper 83D/16
