Enbridge Gas Inc. (Enbridge Gas) has applied for approval to construct approximately
14.7 kilometres of Nominal Pipe Size 4 polyethylene
natural gas pipelines in two phases over approximately 20 months:

• Phase 1: approximately 5.1 kilometres of Nominal Pipe Size 4
polyethylene natural gas pipeline

• Phase 2: approximately 9.6 kilometres of Nominal Pipe Size 4
polyethylene natural gas pipeline

Enbridge Gas states that the pipelines are needed to supply natural gas
to approximately 286 forecasted customers located in the communities
of Lanark and Balderson and surrounding areas in the Township of Lanark
Highlands and the Township of Drummond/North Elmsley. Enbridge Gas
will additionally construct ancillary facilities, that include a new distribution
station, distribution mains as well as meters, regulators and service pipelines.
Collectively, the pipelines and ancillary facilities comprise the Project.
Enbridge Gas has also applied for approval of the forms of agreement it will
offer to landowners affected by the routing or location of the Project.
Enbridge Gas intends to charge the OEB-approved System Expansion
Surcharge to all new customers that will be taking service from the Project.
The Project was approved to receive funding assistance under Phase 2 of the
Government of Ontario’s Natural Gas Expansion Program.
The location of the proposed pipelines is shown in the map.
The OEB will also assess:
• The applicant’s compliance with the OEB’s Environmental Guidelines for
the Location, Construction and Operation of Hydrocarbon Pipelines and
Facilities in Ontario.
• Whether the duty to consult with Indigenous communities potentially
affected by the proposed pipeline has been discharged with respect to
the application.
