Pipeline Safety. Alberta is home to a complex network of pipelines that move oil and gas to markets within our province and beyond our borders. The AER is responsible for ensuring pipeline safety through all of the lifecycle stages of a pipeline, starting with the initial application and continuing through operations until reclamation. The AER regularly inspects pipelines to confirm that operators are monitoring and managing the hazards associated with the particular pipeline. Pipelines with greater risk (such as those that transport sour gas, are near water bodies, or belong to a licensee with a poor compliance record) will undergo a higher level of scrutiny. More information on industry performance is available from the AER.6  Setbacks A “setback” is the minimum distance that infrastructure must be from a pipeline. For provincially regulated oil and gas pipelines, setbacks are determined based on the amount of H2S, if any, in the proposed pipeline. In general, the setback distance for a sweet gas or oil pipeline is the width of the pipeline right-of-way. For sour gas or oil, there can be a setback distance to permanent dwellings, unrestricted county developments, urban centres, or public facilities. The size of the setback depends on the volume of H2S that could be released in the event of an incident. (If the valves determine that there has been a drop in pressure along the pipeline, they can close immediately to stop the flow of gas. The amount of gas between the two valves closest to the rupture is the release volume.) More information on setback distances is available from the AER in the EnerFAQs: Setbacks.7  Emergency Response Planning (ERP) The AER requires the company to create a corporate level Emergency Response Plan (ERP) to establish pre-planned procedures that will aid in an effective response to emergencies. The company is expected to determine the level of detail required to address each item in a corporate-level ERP based on the hazards and potential consequences of the emergency scenarios that its operations pose. The company is expected to keep plan current on an ongoing basis. 6 Alberta Energy Regulator, Pipeline Performance xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xx/data-and-publications/pipeline-performance 7Alberta Energy Regulator, EnerFAQs: Setbacks xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xx/about-aer/enerfaqs/enerfaqs-setbacks Each company has a corporate ERP applicable to sweet pipelines.

Pipeline Safety. Many of the Partnership’s natural gas, NGL and crude pipelines are subject to regulation by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (“PHMSA”) of the DOT (or state analogs) under the Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968 (“NGPSA”) with respect to natural gas, and the Hazardous Liquids Pipeline Safety Act of 1979 (“HLPSA”) with respect to crude oil, NGLs and condensates. Both the NGPSA and the HLPSA were amended by the Pipeline Safety Improvement Act of 2002 (“PSI Act”) and the Pipeline Inspection, Protection, Enforcement, and Safety Act of 2006 (“PIPES Act”). The NGPSA and HLPSA govern the design, installation, testing, construction, operation, replacement and management of natural gas, crude oil, NGL and condensate pipeline facilities. Pursuant to these acts, PHMSA has promulgated regulations governing, among other things, pipeline wall thicknesses, design pressures, maximum operating pressures, pipeline patrols and leak surveys, minimum depth requirements, and emergency procedures, as well as other matters intended to ensure adequate protection for the public and to prevent accidents and failures. Additionally, PHMSA has promulgated regulations requiring pipeline operators to develop and implement integrity management programs for certain gas and hazardous liquids pipelines that, in the event of a pipeline leak or rupture, could affect “high consequence areas,” which are areas where a release could have the most significant adverse consequences, including high-population areas, certain drinking water sources and unusually sensitive ecological areas. The Partnership’s past compliance with the NGPSA and HLPSA has not had a material adverse effect on its results of operations; however, future compliance with these pipeline safety laws could result in increased costs. These pipeline safety laws were amended by the Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty, and Job Creation Act of 2011 (“2011 Pipeline Safety Act”), which requires increased safety measures for gas and hazardous liquids transportation pipelines. Among other things, the 2011 Pipeline Safety Act directs the Secretary of Transportation to promulgate regulations relating to expanded integrity management requirements, automatic or remote-controlled valve use, excess flow valve use, leak detection system installation, testing to confirm the material strength of certain pipelines, and operator verification of records confirming the maximum allowable pressure of certain intrastate gas t...
