Ag Land Damage Cited In Halt To Pipeline Work

The National Energy Board has suspended work on Enbridge's Line 3 pipeline replacement project near Cromer, Manitoba.

An inspector earlier this month reported that multiple environmental conditions committed to by Enbridge were not implemented.

The NEB says this has resulted in damage to a "substantial amount of agricultural land" and wetlands. A lack of safe access to farmland and safety hazards around open excavations and trenchlines are also cited in the order.

Enbridge must now complete a detailed assessment of all safety and environmental issues. A revised environmental plan must be submitted by the end of August. The new plan must also include details on how the company will monitor access to ensure clubroot contamination procedures are in place 24 hours a day.
