Christy Clark – Rennie collection – Sang Sang – Vancouver, – photo Kris Krüg, CC of SA 2.0The proposed Trans Mountain pipeline is proposed, bringing the diluted bitumen from Alberta to BC, having just hit another push. On July 4, British Columbia's lawyer submitted a petition to the National Energy Committee that requested more detailed information on how Kinder Morgan will react to maritime and land overflow incidents. There are 70 questions, not fully solved. They involve two of the BC requirements that must be met before BC will support any oil pipeline.
The notice of their movement also searched for a new term for the next information requirements and other relief as the Board of Directors may consider appropriate in cases.
In the conclusion of the province's notice, it declared:
ScopeTrans Mountains does not submit evidence at the request of the province in requirements 1 to refuse the Council, the province and other interventions to access the necessary information to fully understand the risks caused by the project, how the trans is. Mountain proposes to minimize that risk, and Trans Mountain's ability to effectively respond to the overflow related to the project. If the review process was established by the Board of Directors will be honored, the failure of Trans Mountain must be repaired by a command forced to submit complete and complete answers.
The first question on the list of BC is the requirement Inventory Geohazard And they have found the response of Trans Mountain (TM) unrelated.
Those are really two of the words that TM uses when required a spill on the Kinder Morgan pipes. They said that it was not related to once again when required a list of overflow incidents from all Morgan Kinder pipes, over the past 30 years have been determined by a SCADA alarm.
TM has failed to automatically turn off the pipeline in case of suspected leak and not excluded within 10 minutes.
When TM tries to escape how it can differ with the conclusions or reality discovered by Neb by saying that it is not related, BC answered with a list of ways. relate to:
- Information about leaking and turning off the pump is within the scope of the issues determined by the Board of Directors.
- Information related to the effectiveness of leaking and rapid detection of the current shutdown on the current Trade System is directly related to the company's tracking records for the safe operation of the pipes. . The province requires such information to assess the proposed pipeline performance of Trans Mountain.
- Neb's findings when investigating Sumas 2012 tanks are completely related to Trans Mountain's ability to comply with internal leak detection procedures and closed pipes.
- Mount Transpatement of the NEB report is related to the company's ability to learn from past events and implement the following improvements
These examples are taken from the beginning of BC's list! It continues to take place in 41 pages. Click this link and find yourself.
The failure of Trans Mountain to answer the questions of BC has consequently: The province cannot prepare questions for the second round of the intervention's information requirements in the absence of a complete answer to the requirements that are submitted for the first round. Even if Trans Mountain is ordered to provide complete and complete feedback before the current deadline on September 11, 2014 for the second round of information requirements, the province will not be able to submit the next information requirements. Significant according to that deadline.
On a personal note, I can only talk well about you Premier Christy Clark! And in response to a query of her motivation just appeared, at this time I care about what she did rather than why. Go for it Christy!
