| Abstract/Description or Keywords |
Northern Gateway Pipelines Limited Partnership (Northern Gateway) proposes to construct and operate: an oil export pipeline, a condensate import pipeline, and a tank terminal and marine terminal near Kitimat, British Columbia (referred to as the Kitimat Terminal). The pipelines will be built in a common right-of-way (RoW) between and initiating pump station near Bruderheim, Alberta and the Kitimat Terminal near Kitimat, British Columbia. The marine terminal will accommodate transfer of oil into, and condensate out of, tankers. These project components and activities are referred to collectively as the Enbridge Northern Gateway Project (the Project). Volume 6A comprises the environmental and socio-economic assessment (ESA) for project activities related to the pipelines and tank terminal. Part 2 of Volume 6A includes the effects of the Project on the following selected terrestrial valued environmental components (VECs): wildlife; surface water resources; freshwater fish and fish habitat; hydrogeology; palaeontology. In addition, Section 14 deals with findings related to effects of the environment, such as terrain disruption, surface water movement and forest fire, on project activities at the tank terminal. |
