EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Anchor Loop Pipeline Expansion Design Basis Memorandum (DBM) defines basic design
philosophies and concepts for the Anchor Loop Pipeline Expansion Project. The DBM is a living
document and will be updated as required to reflect the evolving requirements and new information as
the project progresses. A separate Project Execution Plan (PEP) will describe the execution of the
detailed design, procurement, construction, and commissioning elements of the project.
The Trans Mountain pipeline was originally designed to transport a medium crude oil (viscosity of
23 centistokes (cSt)). Subsequent modifications have enabled a variety of crude oils and refined
products to be transported in batches through the pipeline. Today, regular shipments of gasoline,
diesel fuel, iso-octane, light crude, synthetic crude, medium crude, and heavy crude are made.
The pipeline portions of the TMPL system was constructed between 1952 and 1954 includes a NPS 24
pipeline that runs from Edmonton, Alberta, to Burnaby, British Columbia and two (2) 85 km NPS 30
loops from Edson to Hinton in Alberta, and from Darfield to Kamloops in British Columbia. The facilities
on the TMPL system has been expanded and contracted a number of times over time; it currently has a
total of 11 pump stations, five (5) located in Alberta and six (6) located in British Columbia.
The initiating pump station and batch assembly tanks are located at Edmonton, Alberta. Intermediate
injection points and injection tanks are located in Edson, Alberta, and Kamloops, British Columbia.
Intermediate take-off points and take-off tanks are located in Kamloops and Sumas, British Columbia.
Tanks are also located at the end of the pipeline at the Burnaby terminal.
Kinder Morgan Canada Inc. (KMCI) has initiated a series of expansions for the Trans Mountain Pipeline
(TMPL) system. The Trans Mountain Expansion Project (TMPSE) currently under construction will
install ten (10) new pump stations by first quarter 2007. An additional pump station at Blue River has
been added to the TMPSE project scope with an on-stream date of April 2008. The TMPSE project is
expected to increase the Operating Capacity from 225,000 bpd to close to 260,000 bpd of a batch train
that includes 20% heavy crude by volume.
The TMX – Anchor Loop Project includes the construction and installation of 7.7 km of NPS 30 and
151.9 km of NPS 36 pipeline loop. The parallel section of NPS 24 TMPL will be isolated and placed
into an idle state. The facilities portion of the project includes the construction and installation of one
(1) intermediate pump station in Alberta (Wolf) and one (1) other in British Columbia (Chappel). It also
provides for the installation of scraper trap components at the Hinton Pump Station and at the new
Hargreaves Scraper Trap site. The project also includes the installation of remotely actuated mainline
valve site facilities, deactivation of the Niton Pump Station; downgrade the existing Hinton Scraper Trap
facility to a valve site, and completing the connection of the new loop to the Jasper Pump Station.
The Project will increase the TMPL Operating Capacity from about 260,000 bpd to 300,000 bpd by
November 2008. These volumes include a 20% proportion of Heavy Crude. The Project is planning to
provide an interim capacity of about 287,000 bpd by April 2008 by connecting most of the Alberta
section of the Loop, about 96 km and commissioning the new Wolf and Chappel pump stations.
Key project success factors have been identified as Health and Safety, Environmental Protection,
Regulatory Compliance, Schedule, Project Integration, Capital Cost, and Operating Cost. Within the
context of these success factors, the pipelines will be designed “fit for purpose”.

Design of the pipeline will be guided by several additional fundamental philosophies:

Commitments
− Existing commitments to regulatory bodies and other parties will be honoured.
Codes and Standards
− Design will comply with all applicable federal, provincial, and municipal codes and standards.
Cost Effective Design
− Life-cycle costs will be minimized, while safety and environmental standards are maintained.
− Pipeline designs will be based on detailed operating requirements and fluid parameters provided by
upstream, downstream, and integration design teams. Steady-state and transient hydraulic
calculations will be used to determine and optimize line sizes, wall thicknesses, and power
requirements.
Life and Reliability
− Design life of the Loop will be 100 years; system reliabilities will be optimized based on life-cycle
costs.
− Wolf and Chappel Pump Stations and the Hargreaves Scraper Trap Facility shall be designed for a
temporary life.
Future Expansion
− Provision for easily expanded facilities to accommodate future flows up to the hydraulic capacity of
the line will be considered.
Special Design Consideration
− Design for wetlands will be given special consideration.
− The design shall consider rock blasting and working in close proximity to the operating TMPL
system.
Power
− Facilities will be electrically powered; emergency power will be installed.
Control and Custody
− The automated block valves and pump stations will be remotely controlled from KMCI’s Control
Centre. No custody transfer metering will be installed.
Corrosion Control
− All buried and above grade pipe will be externally coated; cathodic protection systems will be
installed.
Maintenance
− Provision will be made for cleaning and in-line inspection tools, shop, and in-situ maintenance.
Health and Safety
− Design will provide for healthy and safe work environments for operations and maintenance.

Revision No.: 0
General Environmental Responsibility

− Protective devices and containment will be installed at the facilities; mainline valves will be remotely
operable where practical.
− Designs shall accommodate the environmental and heritage resource sensitivities of Jasper
National Park and Mount Robson Provincial Park.
Leak Detection
− Leak detection systems will be installed for pipelines and facilities.
− Components will be installed as required to maintain or improve on the current sensitivity of
approximately 100m3/hr
Governing Regulations
− The Onshore Pipeline Regulations (OPR 99) shall be considered the governing regulation for all
Canadian facilities. Any conditions issued with the NEB permit shall be considered of equal
precedence to the OPR 99 regulations.
Schedule
− Construction of the Loop is to commence on or about August 15, 2007. The pipeline and facilities
are to be in-service prior to November 30, 2008. The interim capacity increase is to be achieved by
April 30, 2008. The completion of deactivation activities is presently undetermined.

1.0 PURPOSE
This DBM outlines the design philosophy, criteria, and definition of the scope of the Anchor
Loop Pipeline Expansion project. In addition, the DBM also explicitly lists assumptions and
areas that require further study or development.
The purpose of this DBM is:
• To obtain consistency and compatibility between all design aspects of the project;
• To define basic design philosophies and concepts for the project;
• To obtain commitment to the design basis by all involved parties; and
• To provide a vehicle to communicate the project design basis to management, owners, and,
if appropriate, government agencies.
2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Anchor Loop Project

The Project is required to increase the Trans Mountain Pipeline (TMPL) system’s
operating capacity from about 260,000 bpd to 300,000 bpd to match Shipper’s total flow
nominations. The system is owned by Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. The
capacity-increase portion of the project includes 159.6 km of NPS 30 and NPS 36
pipeline loop and two (2) new pump stations (Wolf and Chappel).
The scope also includes construction of two (2) Scraper Trap facilities and operational
suspension of Niton pump station and the NPS 24 section of TMPL parallel to the loop.

Revision No.: 0
2.2 System Capacity

The flow rates and capacities reported are ex. Edmonton and a function of existing and
proposed configurations. The target operating capacity for the TMPL system after
completion of the Project is 300,000 bpd. The expected increase in flow is detailed in
Section 5.5; peak flow rate, design, and operating capacity are defined as follows.
2.2.1 Peak Flow Rate
The peak flow rate is the maximum safe flow rate that can be achieved with a
maximum station discharge pressure at MOP. The peak flow rate will vary
over time depending on the type and location of the batches in the pipeline.
This peak rate is typically used to determine the installed power requirements
and is the highest flow rate that can be maintained for an extended period
(i.e. no allowance for shutdowns).
2.2.2 Design Capacity
The design capacity is the calculated hydraulic capacity of the system over a
period of 24 consecutive hours without interruption of service. The design
flow rate used in the hydraulic analysis is the total of the Shippers’
nominations divided by a “sustainability factor”. The capacity is determined
using a six-day cycle batch mix identified in Section 5.5.2 which includes
super heavy crude of 20% of total throughput.
2.2.3 Operating Capacity
The operating capacity is the design capacity multiplied by the “sustainability
factor”. This factor represents the percentage of time that the pipeline can
operate, on average, allowing for periods when pipeline operations are
affected by planned maintenance or power, equipment, or other failures along
the pipeline. KMCI uses a factor of 0.95 on TMPL.
2.2.4 Base Annual Throughput
The base annual throughput is an annual average throughput equal to 92.5%
of design capacity based on a heavy oil component of 20% of total
throughput.
2.3 Pipeline Loop
The “KLs” referenced in this DBM refer to the pipeline loop but correlate to the “KP”
system along the existing TMPL. References to “KLs” occur only where the loop
deviates from the existing pipeline. Due to these deviations, the actual length of the loop
is about 1.6 km longer than the same segment of the existing TMPL.
The pipeline loop consists of two (2) segments: 7.7 km of NPS 30 pipeline beginning at
the existing Hinton Scraper Trap site west of Hinton, Alberta, (KP310.0) to the Hinton
Pump Station (KP317.7) and approximately 151.9 km of NPS 36 pipeline from the
Hinton Pump Station to the proposed Hargreaves Scraper Trap site (KP 468.0), near
Rearguard, British Columbia.
The route of the pipeline loop is generally parallel to the existing TMPL. It passes
through Jasper National Park (JNP) a distance of approximately 80 km. It continues
through Mount Robson Provincial Park (MRPP) a distance of approximately 60 km. The
route follows an established transportation corridor of historic and contemporary

significance. The corridor contains Highway 16 (Yellowhead TransCanada Highway),

CN Railway, the TMPL, ATCO GAS Pipeline, ATCO Electric powerline, Telus fibre-optic
lines, and other abandoned rail and roadbed easements. The route abuts the existing
TMPL alignment for approximately 56% of its entire length. It is on or abutting other
linear rights-of-way (i.e., highways, roads, powerlines, abandoned rail grades) for 43% of
its entire length. The remaining 1% of the route is connections between these existing
linear features.

Anchor Loop Project
Revision No.: 0
Scraper trap drain lines will have the same heat tracing / insulation
requirement as the pump stations.
Hinton Pump Station Scraper Traps
A new, permanent trap facility will be constructed within the existing Hinton
Pump station land limits. The trap facility shall be sized to accommodate
planned expansion flow rates via the incoming NPS 30 line and outgoing
NPS 36 line.
The Hinton Scraper Trap shall be designed as a permanent facility to
integrate with existing infrastructure at Hinton Pump Station with control
instrumentation selected to avoid duplication of what is already operational at
Hinton Pump Station. Areas of integration shall include a Power, Service and
Controls, and SCADA communications.
Components installed at the Hinton Pump Station (KP 317.7) will enable
receipt of In-Line Inspection (ILI) tools and cleaning pigs from the upstream
segment of new NPS 30 pipeline loop and launching of ILI tools and cleaning
pigs into the downstream NPS 36 pipeline segment.
Hargreaves Scraper Trap Facility
A new, temporary trap facility will be constructed at Hargreaves, just
upstream of the Rearguard Pump Station. The Hargreaves site (KP 468.0) is
a green-field location 2 km outside and west of MRPP.
The facility will accommodate receipt of NPS 36 ILI tools and cleaning pigs
from the loop and the launching of NPS 24 tools downstream into the TMPL
pipeline. The Hargreaves trap facility shall be constructed for short-term use.
It will be sized to accommodate planned expansion flow rates via the
incoming NPS 36 and outgoing NPS 24 lines.
Distinct features of the Hargreaves Scraper Trap facility shall include:
• Reduced trap shelter height to minimize impact on the highway line of
sight;
• Power, Service and Controls (MCC), and SCADA communications
managed locally;
• The existing MCC building at the Hinton Scraper Trap Facility reused at
Hargreaves; and
• Hargreaves designed as a temporary facility with movable, reusable
components as much as practicable.
Existing Hinton Scraper Trap Facility
The existing Scraper Trap facility at Hinton (KP 310.0) is not required for
future operations, and the facility will be mostly removed and become a
MLBV site. The new NPS 30 loop will tie-into the existing NPS 30 loop at a
point within the yard directly downstream of the existing below grade NPS 30
valve. This NPS 30 valve will remain in place and serve as a MLBV.
Modifications will be made as required to enable the valve to be remotely
actuated.

The trap facility currently contains the following:

• NPS 24 valve (buried) on the incoming NPS 24 mainline
• NPS 24 mainline terminated above grade by blind flange on S-bend
• NPS 26 sending barrel including NPS 10 kicker line with automated
isolation on outgoing NPS 24 pipeline
• NPS 36 receiving barrel including NPS 12 trap outlet piping with
automated isolation on incoming NPS 30 loop
• NPS 16 wedge flow meter on mainline bypass including NPS 16
automated isolation valves
• NPS 12 Dan Flo relief valve on NPS 12 relief line bypass including NPS
12 manual isolation and downstream check valve
• Scraper trap shelter partially enclosed with spill containment slab (located
under the barrels, bypass line, associated valves, and piping) and
controlled surface drain
• Waste oil sump tank with re-injection pumps
• EOS instrumentation for the SCADA system leak detection software
(densitometer and temperature transmitters)
• 6.3 tonne manually operated overhead crane
• MMC building housing the PLC cabinet (Solartron Density Converter,
SCADA RTU cabinet, AGT cabinet, chart recorder, front panel and status
lamps), and MCC-B (lighting, starters and control).
Existing scraper trap facilities shall be fully removed from the NPS 30
segment of the pipeline loop and this facility shall be maintained as a MLBV
site. The original NPS 24 pipeline from this trap facility to the Hinton pump
station, which is about 7.7 km long, shall be deactivated in accordance with
CSA Z662.
Timing of decommissioning activities shall be selected to minimize impact on
the maintenance pigging schedule, and brought as close as possible to
activation of the Hinton Pump Station scraper trap facilities.
Components of the existing trap facility shall be assessed for their reusable
value and application to the new trap facilities at Hinton Pump Station and
Hargreaves.
2.4.3 Idling of Niton Pump Station (KP 173.4)
The Niton station is not required until future pipeline and facility expansion is
implemented. It is to be temporarily isolated from the system and prepared

the piping is drained, as confirmed by the sump tank level not changing,
nitrogen flow will continue into the piping until completely purged.
Maintain nominal nitrogen pressure inside the drained process piping;
• Re-inject products from the sump tank into the mainline and clean the
tank;
• Blind the mainline from station suction and discharge piping, by flipping
the existing spectacle blinds, located on the station side of the station
isolation valves;
• Isolate the station re-injection piping from the mainline by installing a line
blank on the station side of the re-injection to mainline isolation valve;
• Purge with nitrogen all remaining lines and equipment in previous volatile
service. Equipment to be drained and purged includes the wedge meter,
control valves and unit isolation valves, pressure relief valves, sump
pump, and sump pump discharge line. All valve bodies to be drained of
any product;
• Electrically isolate both units to the extent necessary without affecting
safety, security and the environment. Lockout ancillary equipment;
• Maintain limited electrical power supply to the entire station for equipment
integrity, cathodic protection, security, and critical instrument monitoring,
i.e. mainline temperature pressure and density, station pressure, gas
detection, fire detection, smoke detection, floor sump level;
• Use of signage to clearly identify the status of all equipment; and
2.4.4 Tie-In to Jasper Pump Station
Jasper Pump Station will be tied into the new NPS 36 line; and the existing
components to the NPS 24 line will be isolated or removed as required. All
isolated sections shall be drained of oil, filled with Nitrogen, and subsequently
monitored.
The tie-in shall ensure that flow through the NPS 36 line can be routed
through the station pumps as required by Operations.
2.4.5 Mainline Block Valve (MLBV) Sites and Ancillary Facilities
Actuators for the remote motorized operation of eleven (11) Gate valves on
the pipeline loop will be purchased and commissioned as a part of the
project. Additional valves are required at the Hinton Pump Station and at

factors over the life of the pipelines and facilities:
• Health and Safety
− The health and safety of construction, operations, maintenance personnel and the
public.
− Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate, Loss Time Injury Frequency Rate and Motor
Vehicle Accident rate.
• Environmental Protection
− The protection of water courses, groundwater, soil, the atmosphere, and animal and
plant life.
• Regulatory Compliance
− The compliance with directives of the regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the
Anchor Loop Pipeline System and the commitments made to those agencies.
• Schedule
− Meeting key milestones of the “Base” Schedule including partial in-service objective.

4.0 FUNDAMENTAL PHILOSOPHIES
4.1 Fitness-for-Purpose
The Anchor Loop pipelines and facilities shall be designed to be capable of transporting
the required volumes of products, allowing for planned maintenance and reasonable
unplanned outage.
Equipment will be selected based on a balance of life-cycle capital and operating costs.
It is preferable that the equipment chosen for the initial (2007) phase of the expansion
will be of standard sizes suitable for service through to and including the final phase
(hydraulic capacity) without replacement, and that minimal disruption to pumping is
required to upgrade for future phases.
The facilities will be easily operable and maintainable with reasonable maintenance
access. A balance will be met between automated and manual operation and between
ease of maintenance and cost of maintenance.
Facilities not required for the primary function of the pipeline system, or not contributing
significantly to its reliability, operability or maintainability would not be incorporated.
The project shall be designed to meet the operating capacity objective of 300,000 bpd,
allowing for planned maintenance and expected system reliability.
Design, procurement, and construction at Wolf and Chappel Pump Stations shall be
cognizant of their anticipated short operational life span (estimated three (3) years). The
salvage value of these stations shall be optimized.
Product Quality shall be considered in the design of facilities. “Dead-legs” in piping shall
be minimized, but not at the expense of good piping design.
4.2 Codes and Standards
Design of the pipeline loop and facilities will respect applicable federal, provincial,
municipal, and project codes, regulations, and standards as specified in Sections 5.1
and 5.2.
The design of pipelines and ancillary components, facilities, and access roadways shall
use existing internal standards and practices where possible. These will be updated as
required to reflect project specific conditions and actual local design requirements.
4.3 Cost Effective Design
A cost effective design approach will be used with the goal of minimizing life-cycle cost
while meeting the project requirements for safety, environmental protection, regulatory
compliance, and performance. Synergy with KMCI standards and practices will be
maintained, where positive life-cycle cost benefits can be demonstrated.
4.4 Life and Reliability
For detailed design purposes, a minimum design life of 100 years will be used in
predictive modeling of the pipeline loop. In certain situations where opportunities exist,
an even more prudent allowance towards a safer design will be applied. For instance,
river bed scour design will provide protection from flood events having a 200-year
recurrence interval.
IFC.doc

Anchor Loop Project
Revision No.: 0
The design of facilities will meet the requirements of OPR, relevant industry standards,
and internal specifications but will consider the anticipated short life cycle of Wolf,
Chappel, and Hargreaves facilities.
4.5 Future Expansion
Provision for easily expanded facilities to accommodate future flows up to the hydraulic
capacity of the line will be considered.
4.6 Special Design Considerations
Routing through JNP and MRPP requires special considerations for enhanced
environmental protection. These considerations will influence the separation of
pipelines; spacing of isolation valves; provisions for valve automation; pipe wall
thickness; and crossing designs for road, railway, and watercourses.
The presence of wetlands was considered in the routing. Where wetlands areas could
not be avoided, appropriate engineering procedures will be required for access roads,
station grading and building and equipment foundations. Cost studies will determine the
optimal construction methods.
The water table may be high at the pump station locations and due consideration will be
given to buoyancy. It may be necessary to provide hold down anchors for buried piping
and sump tanks.
In addition to hydraulic requirements, the pump station locations will consider foundation
soil conditions, proximity to access roads, and proximity to power supplies.
Layout and design of the two (2) pump stations will be modeled from the currently in-
progress Trans Mountain Pump Station Expansion Project (TMPSE).
Standard station designs shall be completed early in the detailed engineering phase with
the identification of specific variations where required. Construction drawing sets for the
individual stations shall be based on the standard station design with a specific
dedicated set of drawings for each station
Efforts shall be made to maximize the amount of shop work and to minimize the amount
of field work required. All piping will be shop fabricated and tested to the furthest extent
practical. All piping and equipment will be shop coated.
4.7 Power
Facilities power requirements shall be met by a combination strategy of existing power
supply, new distribution lines, and new transmission lines. Supply of the power
infrastructure will be provided through a combination of agreements in Alberta and
British Columbia and is subject to several regulatory approval processes.
There are no planned upgrades to the power supply at the Hinton Pump Station to
accommodate the scraper trap facility.
An existing 14KV single-phase power supply will service the planned Hargreaves (British
Columbia) scraper trap. The service will be provided by BC Hydro.
UPS power at each pump station will be provided and sized for instrumentation, control,
and monitoring systems, as well as provide ESO capability for station isolation valves.

4.7.1 Wolf and Chappel Pump Stations

In Alberta, the Wolf Pump Station will be powered from a substation through
a new build, own, and operate (BOO) Distribution Agreement. AESO has
designated Fortis Alberta to be the utilities that will own and operate the
power facilities connecting the provincial power grid to the Wolf Pump
Station.
In British Columbia, the Chappel Pump Station electrical substation will be
owned, operated, and maintained by the TMPL System. The Utility Prime
Contractor will complete regulatory approvals, route selection, public and
First Nations consultation, land agreements, and technical requirements.
KMCI will negotiate an EPCM (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction
Management) agreement with the Utility Prime Contractor.
4.7.2 Mainline Block Valve Sites
Utility power will be provided for the new MLBV sites where practical.
Alternative power will be considered where appropriate.
4.8 Control, SCADA, and Communications
The TMPL facilities are monitored and controlled by Control Center Operators located in
the Edmonton Control Center. Pump station facilities are unmanned, remotely operated
facilities. Control and shutdown functions for the protection of equipment shall be
installed at the equipment location and be independent of inputs from SCADA or
operation of the SCADA system.
The existing control philosophy of the TMPL system will be maintained on the project.
The control system at each pump station will be PLC-based using high-speed
communication links. SCADA information to / from each site will be sent to the
Edmonton control center via a frame relay communication system. Communications to
remote scraper traps and mail line block valve sites will be by telephone land lines where
possible and by MOSCAD or equal radio links via mountain top repeaters to the nearest
pump station where the data will be incorporated into the local PLC-DC for polling by the
SCADA system. The configuration and capacity of this system will be analyzed during
detailed engineering.
Field instrumentation will be used to ensure safe and reliable operation of each facility.
Where required by codes and standards, redundant instrumentation will be installed.
Where possible, analog transmitters will be installed instead of on-off switches, due to
better reliability and easier remote troubleshooting. The UPS will provide power for PLC
controllers, SCADA communication, field instrumentation and LOI, as well as fire / gas
detection systems

4.9 Corrosion Control

Above ground components, including piping, equipment, and structures, will be coated;
however, paint colors of facilities will be selected with regard to compatibility with
surrounding facilities.
Piping to be insulated will only require a prime coating. No internal coating of piping or
piping components is required.
The existing Cathodic Protection (CP) system will be supplemented as required with new
or replacement components (e.g. rectifiers, groundbeds). CP shall be applied to all
buried high-pressure pipeline components including the respective section of temporarily
suspended NPS 24 TMPL pipeline.
4.10 Maintenance
Maintenance of the new facilities will follow the same philosophies as the existing TMPL
facilities. Facilities will be designed to allow for efficient in-situ equipment maintenance.
4.11 Health and Safety
The facilities will be designed to provide a healthy and safe working environment for
operations and maintenance personnel. Designs will include adequate ventilation, area
and task lighting, handrails and ladders / stairways at elevated structures, guards and
adequate working or access space around rotating equipment, and the minimizing of
confined spaces.
Fire, smoke, combustible gas detectors, and other safety sensors and alarms will be
provided.
Facilities will be designed to provide an appropriately comfortable and hygienic work
environment. Remote, normally unmanned facilities will include water and basic
sanitation facilities except at remote MLBV sites.
All facilities will provide a safe working environment in accordance with Occupational
Health and Safety requirements and KMCI’s safety practices. Safety will be a significant
consideration in the layout and features of facilities:
• Stairways will provide the primary access to elevated structures where frequent
access is required.
• “Side-step” ladders will be considered for elevated structures requiring infrequent
access.
• Confined spaces will be minimized.
• Coupling guards or other guards will be provided for all exposed rotating equipment.
• Suitable warning signs will be posted for these and other hazards.
• Fire, smoke, combustible gas detectors, and other safety related sensors and alarms
would be provided, as required.
Final safety designs will be reviewed through Process Hazard Assessments.
4.12 General Environment Responsibility
Fugitive emissions from the pipelines or facilities will be minimized through appropriate
design and operating procedures, regular maintenance, routine monitoring and

inspection, and the installation of protective devices on piping, storage tanks, sump
tanks, etc. In addition, in order to minimize the severity of any accidental releases,
isolation, containment, leak detection, and response systems will be included in the
Anchor Loop system designs.
Protective devices will include high-pressure sensors and relief systems on piping and
level sensors on tanks.
MLBVs will be placed, on either side of major river crossings and at other appropriate
intervals to reduce the volumes that could be released due to line leaks. Their location
is selected, in part, on an analysis of potential draindown volumes. All motor operated
gate valves will be remotely operable.
Future government environmental policies will be anticipated and considered during
technology selection particularly with respect to energy conservation.
Prevention of oil spills reaching the local environment shall be considered in the design
of facilities. Pump station and scraper trap facilities shall be designed to drain
groundwater from areas of potential hydrocarbon releases through a controlled route
with the capability of impounding liquids. Groundwater outlet piping from containment
catchments shall be controlled by normally closed manual valves. Hydrocarbon
detectors shall be provided in the catchments at remote stations to provide an alarm to
the Control Center Operator in the event of an oil release.
Detailed environmental assessments were prepared during the early planning phases of
the project, and submitted with the regulatory applications. Specifications for the
construction of facilities shall incorporate environmental mitigation measures consistent
with commitments made to the regulatory authorities as outlined in the Environmental
Protection Plan (EPP). In the event that additional environmental conditions are
received with the approvals for the work, the additional conditions will be incorporated
into the designs and specifications at that time.
4.13 Commitments
Commitments made to the Regulatory Agencies, such as those identified in the EPP, as
well as those contained in responses to Information Requests, will be honoured.
Other commitments that may develop during the course of the project, such as those
negotiated with stakeholders, will also be honoured.
4.14 Leak Detection and Response
Components of the project will be integrated through SCADA into the existing leak
detection system. TMPL’s existing pipeline leak detection system, the Computational
Pipeline Modeling (CPM) program, will be used.
Metering will be installed where required at the pump stations in order to maintain the
current level of leak detection sensitivity of approximately 100m3/hr.
The individual facility containment systems will be provided with leak detection alarms.
These will consist of single or multiple level alarms, hydrocarbon detection sensors, or
combination of both. Flow based leak detection will be provided for mainline pump
mechanical seals.
In cases where a pipeline leak is detected, the Edmonton Control Center Operator
(CCO) can activate an emergency shutdown of the various pumping stations along the

pipeline. As required, the CCO may activate the closure of MLBVs. Once activated, the
location of the leak will be found and the cause of the leak rectified. After the leak is
repaired, a manual reset at each station will be required.

use existing TMPSE specifications and KMCI standards to the extent
practical. The KMCI base standards and TMPSE specifications are listed in
Appendix C.
The standards will include an Engineering Records System (ERS), which will
be based on KMCI Standard G1100, Rev. 1.
KMCI Drafting Standards will be used. Full-size drawing sets will be ANSI D
(22”x34”). Reduced size drawing sets will be B (11”x17”) size.
5.3 Sparing
Other than critical spare parts, redundant equipment and inventory spare parts shall not
be purchased for the project.
5.4 Future Expansion
The pipelines and facilities will be designed to be easily expandable up to the hydraulic
capacity of the lines. It is preferable that the equipment chosen for the initial phase of
the expansion will be suitable for service through to and including the final phase in
terms of hydraulic capacity without replacement and that minimal disruption to pumping
is required to upgrade for future phases. Equipment should be selected and designed
on a “modular” basis, which can be repeated for subsequent additions required to meet
the anticipated flow build-up.
The existing easement through JNP is 6.1 metres wide and will contain TMPL and the
proposed loop. Parks Canada have indicated no additional easement will be allowed so
where the loop deviates from the TMPL pipeline by more than 4.5 metres centre to
centre, the easement is likely to be split so the sum of widths will not exceed 6.1 metres.
Opportunity for future looping is limited.

5.5.2 Pipeline Operating Limits

TMPL is a multi-product pipeline system. Shippers nominate individual
volumes of crude and refined products to be transported through the pipeline.
TMPL accepts all nominations up to the point where the pipeline’s capacity is
exceeded. Once nominations exceed the pipeline’s available capacity, all
nominations are decreased a proportional amount and the system is said to
be operating in apportionment. When the system operates in apportionment
for an extended period, TMPL considers expanding its capacity.
To expand the system’s capacity, TMPL canvasses Shippers to determine
the types of crude and refined product and the amount of each different fluid
that the Shippers plan to transport in the system then determines a target
pipeline operating capacity and formulates a batch line-up. The target design
capacity is the total of the Shipper’s nominations divided by the “sustainability
factor” of 0.95.
The batch line-up is the sequence of different volumes of fluids that will be
transported in the pipeline system. The batch line-up employed in the TMPL
system is designed to limit the amount of inter-fluid contamination and is
based on the following constraints:
• the pipeline operates on a recurring six (6)-day cycle – in order to provide
a steady supply of light crude to the Chevron Refinery in Burnaby
• this cycle includes three (3) days of refined products – in order to provide
a steady supply of gasoline and diesel fuel to BC
• the cycle also includes three (3) days of crude oil
• super heavy crude batches are included in the three (3) days of crude
and is assumed to be 20% of the batch cycle
• super heavy crude batches are limited to a maximum volume of
30,000 m3
Trans Mountain has formulated a target operating capacity of 47,770 m3/d
(300,000 bpd) for the batch line-up shown in Table 5.5.2.A.

The TMPL system is licensed for a maximum operating pressure that varies
along the pipeline. Minimum suction pressure of the pump stations is set at
350 kPa. The new pump stations will be designed to ANSI 600 (PN100),
which will have the capability of discharging at 9,930 kPa. The Anchor Loop
will, as a minimum, have a design pressure of 9,930 kPa to match with a high
pressure section downstream of the Hinton pump station, which will have an
MOP of 10,875 kPa.
5.5.3 Hydraulic Modeling
The hydraulic behaviour of multi-product pipelines such as TMPL is more
complex than single-product lines because the throughput varies with time as
the different batches move through the system. Designing a multi-product
pipeline involves hydraulic simulation to ensure that the system can meet a
specified time-average throughput for the design batch line-up.
To calculate the time-averaged throughput, hydraulic simulation determines
the total time it takes to ship the complete design batch cycle and the
methodology must account for the time-varying throughput of the pipeline.
Two (2) basic methods available to accomplish this are the fully-transient
method and the simpler successive steady-state method.
Two types of analysis have been performed:
• Successive steady-state, and
• Transient
The successive steady-state analysis was used to determine the hydraulic
capacity of the pipeline, while the transient analysis was used to consider the
effects of upset conditions on the pipeline.
Steady State Analysis
A steady-state analysis was performed on the Anchor Loop pipeline. The
goal of this analysis was to determine the lowest cost combination of pipeline

diameter, wall thickness, pipeline maximum operating pressure, steel grade,

and pump power that will ensure design daily flow rates can be achieved.
A proprietary single-phase, successive steady-state model was used to
complete the steady state hydraulic analysis for the pipeline.
The maximum discharge pressure of each pump station was set at MOP.
The minimum suction pressure at the inlet of each pump station was set at
300 kPa, and the minimum pipeline pressure was set at 150 kPag to prevent
slack flow.
Head loss calculations were performed for the pipelines only. Pressure
losses within pump stations were assumed and added into the pump power
calculations.
Transient Analysis
A transient hydraulic analysis has been performed on the Anchor Loop
pipeline for the peak flow rate. The goal of the transient analysis was to
ensure each pipeline segment can be safely protected under upset
conditions.
The transient analysis considered pressure surges created within the pipeline
under the following, most severe upset conditions:
• Unplanned closure of a MLBV during ESD
• Unplanned loss of an entire pump station
Pressure surges created within the confines of pump stations and pressure
surges within pump stations caused by a MLBV closure were not considered.
The transient analysis provides pressures at critical locations along the
pipeline versus time. The critical locations along the pipeline will vary
depending on the location of the upset condition, but in general, the critical
locations will be at the low elevation points upstream of the upset condition.
The transient analysis:
• Determined if pressure relieving, pressure limiting, or pressure shut-down
devices must be installed or if other methods must be considered to
ensure the pipeline pressure does not exceed 110% of pipeline MOP
under these upset conditions, and
• Determined if special methods must be considered to ensure the pipeline
pressure does not fall below 150 kPag under these upset conditions.
5.5.4 Surge Protection
The transient analysis of the TMPL system was completed by CIMARRON
Engineering Ltd. Results of the analysis indicate that surge protection must
be incorporated into most existing stations and all new stations to be
constructed. A copy of this analysis will be provided to the EP Consultant(s)
selected to work on this project.

Anchor Loop Project
Revision No.: 0
As part of the facilities design during detailed engineering, transient analysis

shall be performed again to determine if relief valves or over pressure
protection is required to protect upstream piping, metering, etc., against
surges due to power failure or valve closure.
An appropriate means of surge protection shall be incorporated into the new
station design and included in the upgrade work at existing stations as
required.
5.5.5 Temperature Differential
To avoid any pipeline movements caused by thermal changes from
transferring to the facilities piping, large radii bends and pipe loops will be
considered during design within the facilities property. Requirements for
anchor block or aboveground anchor points will be determined by completing
a stress analysis during detailed design.
5.5.6 Electrical Design Considerations
Mainline pump motors on the line will have a 1.15 service factor, which may
be used under some conditions. VFDs must be capable of allowing motors to
be run at full-service factor power from normal on-line operating speed to
110% of synchronous speed. Pump and motor speed range required is
expected to be 40% to 110% of synchronous speed (e.g. 1,440 rpm to
3,960 rpm for a nominal 3,600 rpm motor). This means motors will most
likely need to be stiff shafted, highly damped and critical, or of a special
design.
5.5.7 Power
Facility power requirements shall be met by a combination strategy of existing
power supply, new distribution lines, and new transmission lines.
The preferred power strategy at Wolf, Chappel, and Hargreaves facilities
shall reflect the anticipated lifetime of these facilities (about three (3) years).
5.5.8 Constructability
The following techniques will be used during the design process to ensure the
optimal constructability of designs:
• Participation by construction personnel in the design process and during
regular constructability reviews
• Regular interface meetings between the Pipeline Consultant, KMCI, and
the Facilities Consultant design teams.
• Incorporation of appropriate levels of modularization
• Use of 3D design tools
• Incorporation of lessons learned from the original TMPL construction
process.
5.5.9 Temporary Tie-in
Near the Alberta / British Columbia border, components shall be installed to
enable the NPS 36 loop to be connected to TMPL on a temporary basis. The

site shall contain all components required to fully commission, operate the
upstream sections of pipeline loop, and transfer product into TMPL until such
time that the downstream section of loop is built and readied for service. The
precise location for the crossover is to be determined. The design shall
consider the future need to provide an in-line connection between upstream
and downstream sections of pipeline loop.
5.6 Control, SCADA, and Communications
5.6.1 Station Control
Pump station control systems will be based on programmable logic controller
(PLC) hardware. PLC systems will consist of a Data Concentrator PLC, a
Station PLC and a Flow Computer PLC, where applicable. Each pump unit
will be controlled through a dedicated I/O rack communicating on a Control
Net with Station PLC. Flow computers will be used to provide custody
transfer measurement and meter proving control. Level of integration and
redundancy with existing PLC system will be considered during detailed
design.
Station control shall be a low select Proportional and Integral (PI) system
controlling station suction pressure, station discharge pressure, or station
kilowatts simultaneously, automatically selecting the control variable. PI
control functions will be done by the station PLC in the same manner as
existing TMPL facilities. Start-and-Stop commands and setpoints for the PI
system will originate either from the SCADA system or from the local HMI.
Station local control systems will consist of:
• Fire and gas detection
• Process alarming and ESD of each pump unit
• Pump control
Pump Station Control
• Station suction pressure (pump cavitation protection) will be provided as a
control variable under program control in the PLC. The PLC program will
ensure suction pressure is maintained within preset limits to ensure safe
operation of the pump.
• Station discharge pressure control will be provided by redundant station
discharge pressure transmitters, located downstream of the station
discharge block valve. The pressure transmitters will ensure the
maximum discharge pressure is in accordance with the licensed MOP.
The recommended maximum discharge pressure controller set point will
be based on licensed MOP for each site. If pressure control through the
operation of the VFD is unable to prevent the discharge pressure from
exceeding the station discharge pressure set point, the station PLC will
initiate a unit quick stop (no shutdown sequence).
• If Station Kilowatts (kW consumption) increase over the kW setpoint, the
controller will limit power consumption at the pump station by reducing
pump speed.

• Station and unit protection shall be based on the attached shutdown key.
An Operating Limits and Protective Device Document, which will be
incorporated into the TMPL Operating Limits and Protective Device
Document and approved by the Manager, Technical Services, shall be
developed to detail both the protection and the operating limits of the
equipment and pipeline at the new sites.
Hinton Scraper Trap Facility Control
The Hinton Scraper Trap facility control requirements shall be integrated with
the Hinton Pump Station operations and defined during detailed design.
Hargreaves Scraper Trap Facility Control
Local controls for the Hargreaves Scraper Trap facility shall be located in its
service / control building (to be relocated from the existing trap facility near
Hinton). Control requirements shall be defined during detailed design.
Automated Mainline Block Valve Sites Control
Remote valve site control requirements shall be integrated with central
control center operations and defined during detailed design.
5.6.2 SCADA
All facilities shall be monitored from either the Primary Control Centre (PCC)
located in Sherwood Park, Alberta, or the Secondary Control Center (SCC) in
south Edmonton using a SCADA system; the precise monitoring location for
each facility shall be determined during detailed design HAZOPS.
Database points and new graphic display screens will also be added to
support the new sites. The leak detection system and the operator simulator
/ trainer will also be modified.
The SCADA system and supporting communications system infrastructure
will build upon the existing system and will be expanded to accommodate the
new instrumentation and control signals for the new MLBVs. SCADA system
modifications and communications will be arranged by KMCI. SCADA
equipment shall be suitably enclosed.
Database points and new graphic display screens will also be added to
support the new sites. The leak detection system and the operator simulator
/ trainer will also be modified.
The SCADA system will interface with the station Data Concentrator PLC.
Local monitoring and control of the facility will consist of a PLC control system
and dedicated LOI. Capacity of the existing Telvent (formerly Metso,
previously Valmet) SCADA system will be evaluated during detailed
engineering phase. New SCADA I/O points and screens will be programmed
into existing system to accommodate control of new devices.
The final SCADA system will provide the Control Room Operators with ability
to:
• Acquire data and remotely monitor pipeline facilities and MLBVs
• Remotely open and close pump station valves and MLBVs

• Change set points of station controllers

• Initiate pump start or stop sequences
• Initiate Emergency Shut Down (ESD) of the pump stations
5.6.3 Telecommunications Systems
Telecommunications systems will provide communications to the following:
• Pump stations, terminal facilities, and scraper trap sites
• MLBV locations
• The Edmonton Control Center
• Maintenance personnel along the pipeline
Existing telecommunication system will be used where possible; and if
necessary, new equipment will be added to accommodate new facilities.
5.7 Corrosion Control
5.7.1 Coatings
Facility equipment, piping, and tanks will be coated externally to project
coating standards.
Following KMCI’s standards, facility piping and equipment coatings will be
chosen based on:
• adhesion,
• toughness during handling,
• suitability for repair,
• operating temperature,
• historical performance,
• cost, and
• availability.
Joint coatings will be suitable for easy field application and compatible with
shop-applied coating. Additional considerations will include ambient
application conditions, preheat, and drying time requirements.
Piping that is exposed to the atmosphere (such as at valve assemblies) will
be protected from external corrosion by the application of a protective
coating, such as paint.
Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE) has been selected for external coating of the
buried pipeline. An additional abrasion resistant coating will be applied to all
pipe that will be installed by trenchless methods. The pipe will not be
internally coated.
Field weld joints will be coated with brush or roller applied two-part liquid
epoxy after sandblasting Utilization of automated field applied liquid epoxy
systems will be investigated.

Anchor Loop Project
Revision No.: 0
Other components such as valves and fabricated assemblies that are shop
fabricated will be sandblasted and coated as per KMCI specifications.
FBE coating that is exposed to the sun will deteriorate with time. Storage
conditions will be appraised and coated pipe that is at risk of UV damage will
be white-washed or an alternative protection will be put in place.
5.7.2 Cathodic Protection (CP)
External coating combined with CP will provide corrosion control. CP will
meet standard practices and consist of impressed current and sacrificial
anodes. CP will be installed and activated as soon as possible after pipe
installation to provide maximum corrosion protection. All new installations will
be integrated into the existing TMPL system.
CP designs will consider the following:
• Length of the system and segments
• Coating specifications
• Locations of stations and MLBVs
• Soil analysis
• Water table
• Proximity to other utilities
• Insulation from reinforced concrete
• Locations and performance of existing TMPL anodes and rectifiers
• Availability of AC power
Some of the issues that the design will also address are:
• paralleling existing pipelines with CP systems operated by others,
• paralleling AC power lines, and
• special situations where additional CP technologies such as zinc ribbons
would be required and appropriate.
Test lead locations will generally match existing locations and will be placed
on all pipeline crossings where approved by the pipeline owners. Test leads
will also be placed on both sides of primary highway crossings for safety
reasons so that KMCI operations personnel by allowing CP readings to be
taken without the need to cross the travel lanes
5.8 Maintenance
Facilities will be designed to allow for efficient in-situ equipment maintenance.
In general, the types of equipment that will require mechanical lifts will be motors, pump
casings and internals, valves, valve operators and internals, meters and internals, and
cleaning and inspection tools The cost of installed lifting equipment and truck loading
areas will be weighed against the cost for mobilizing other internal or external equipment
over the life of the facilities.

In cases where noise, safety, containment, or other considerations result in the

requirement for shelters at facilities, the additional cost of shelter hatches to allow for the
use of third-party cranes will be determined for the analysis.
The relative costs of installed versus off-site lifting equipment during construction will
also be considered.
5.9 Health and Safety
5.9.1 Work Environment and Hygiene
Facilities will provide an appropriately comfortable and hygienic work
environment. In addition to natural ventilation, forced ventilation, heating, and
air conditioning will be considered to control temperature to appropriate levels
for the work to be undertaken at various facilities. Area and task lighting will
be suitable for the work to be carried out.
Office and other workspaces will be reasonably sized for their intended
frequency and duration of use. Desks, filing cabinets, and other furnishings
will be suitable for the work to be carried out and the materials to be stored.
Washrooms will be provided at all pump station sites. As a minimum, this
shall include a toilet and hand-cleaning facility as well as an emergency
shower.
5.9.2 Safety
All facilities will provide a safe working environment in accordance with OHSA
requirements and KMCI safety practices.
All buildings will be ventilated in accordance with electrical classification
requirements.
Safety will be a significant consideration in the layout and features of
facilities. Guards with handrails will be provided at all elevated structures.
Where frequent access is required, stairways will provide the primary access
to elevated structures. “Side-step” ladders will be considered for elevated
structures requiring infrequent access or for secondary accesses. Multiple
access and escape routes will be provided for large areas. Where possible,
“walking” clearance will be provided under elevated structures. Confined
spaces will be minimized. Guards will be provided for all exposed rotating
equipment and for equipment operating at high temperatures. Suitable
warning signs will be posted for these and other hazards.
Fire, smoke, combustible gas detectors, and other safety related sensors and
alarms will be provided.
5.10 Environmental Responsibility
5.10.1 Facilities
The pump station and scraper trap facilities will be designed in a manner that
minimizes the risk of spills during construction, operations, and maintenance.
A list of all environmental issues that may affect the pump station and scraper
trap facilities will be developed along with an assessment of short and long-
term impact, risk, and consequences.

Leak / spill containment will be provided at each facility. The containment

volumes will be determined based on an assessment of anticipated leak / spill
volumes and frequencies, detection capabilities, response times, and capital
cost. Consideration will be given to the need for secondary containment (the
first level of containment outside the process system) and tertiary
containment (back-up to the secondary containment).
Inverted weirs, oil separators, and other devices may be considered for
containment systems that also retain and discharge surface or rainwater.
Flanges will not be buried.

The lands within JNP and MRPP are restored to a state as per filed
reclamation plans.
Environmentally Significant Sites
The route traverses, or is near a number of areas with significant
environmental or socio-economic importance. Special construction
techniques or design considerations may be required at each of these
locations. Appendix D contains additional description and information.

The Montane Eco Region This wildlife critical region covers 7% of the park.
Declared Wilderness The National Parks Act, by regulation, provides for the declaration, of
Areas wilderness areas within the park. A high level of ecological integrity is
synonymous with wilderness. The intent of the wilderness declaration is to
assist in ensuring a high level of ecological integrity by preventing activities
likely to impair wilderness character. The perpetuation of ecosystems with
minimal human interference is the key consideration in maintaining
wilderness character. The only development or activities allowed are those
for essential services and the protection of the park resources. Declaring
wilderness areas is one of a range of tools that is used to ensure the
preservation of wilderness value. Human use levels in declared wilderness
areas will be managed based on landscape management unit objectives and
human use strategies. Maps of these areas are available on the internet as
described in Appendix E.
Therefore, the loop is aligned entirely outside these Wilderness Areas and all
construction and operational activities are to be restricted outside of the
Wilderness Areas as well.

6.3 Hydraulic Analysis
The steady-state analysis considered the mainline hydraulics for the pipelines and
results are within the CIMARRON Hydraulic Analysis Report, Appendix G. The
pipeline design pressure is 9,990 kPa except for a section between KL 322.8 and 343.8
where it was increased to 10,875 kPa to allow for hydraulic head as this section is in a
low-point on the pipeline relative to Hinton Pump Station. The design pressure sections
are show in Table 6.4.8.B. The analysis showed a peak flow rate of 350,000 bpd is
achievable with no heavy crude. The target operating capacity of 300,000 bpd was
achievable for the design considerations in Section 5.5.
6.3.1 Refinement of the Hydraulic Modeling
The hydraulic analysis reported in Appendix G, includes further
consideration of the properties of the super heavy crude using a viscosity of
350 cSt @ 7.5°C reference temperature in winter with 2°C ground
temperature and 5°C fluid pipeline inlet temperature in Edmonton. This
additional analysis shows that the TMPSE Project or Anchor Loop Project
cannot meet their target operating capacity of 260,000 bpd and 300,000 bpd,
respectively. To achieve the operating capacity of 300,000 bpd, another
pump station was added to the TMPSE Project at Blue River for a total of 11
pump stations. In addition, further analysis was done on connecting the

Due to the nature of the products transported in the TMPL, the system has
been defined as a Low Vapour Pressure pipeline system in CSA Z662.
Therefore, piping design, materials, welding, fabrication, non-destructive
testing, and pressure testing for the project will conform to the latest version
of CSA Z662 requirements for Low Vapour Pressure liquids and all applicable
standards, specifications, and codes that are incorporated by reference in
CSA Z662.
Line pipe and heavy-wall pipe will be manufactured using standard
manufacturing procedures for longitudinal or spiral weld pipe. The steel will
be low carbon, low alloy type with controlled rolling practices used to improve

The line pipe material and associated fittings will be selected in accordance
with a maximum design stress level of 80% of Specified Minimum Yield
Strength (SMYS). This maximum design stress level will be reduced as
required by regulations at specific locations, such as uncased railway
crossings and underneath roads based on fatigue analysis.
Following negotiations with representatives of JNP, the NPS 36 pipe installed
through the park shall be subject to additional testing of pipe body and seam
weld to demonstrate notch toughness properties consistent with that required
for Category II pipe.
The additional testing includes:
• On one (1) pipe from each heat of steel produced and applied to the
order, the following will be performed:
− One (1) set of Charpy V-notch test specimens, prepared from the
parent material of the pipe as outlined for body tests in CSA
Z 245.1-02, will be subjected to testing at a temperature of -5°C,
results to be reported for information only.
− One (1) set of Drop Weight Tear Test specimens, prepared from the
parent material as outlined in Clauses 7.7.1 and 7.7.2 of CSA Z
245.1-02, will be subjected to testing at a temperature of -5°C, results
to be reported for information only
• On every tenth pipe referenced above (i.e. from every tenth heat), and as
agreed to in earlier correspondence, the following will also be performed:
deposited weld metal of the longitudinal seam as outlined in Clause
8.5.1 of CSA Z 245.1-02, will be subjected to testing at a temperature
of -5°C, results to be reported for information only.
heat-affected zone of the longitudinal seam, will be subjected to
testing at a temperature of -5°C, results to be reported for information
only.
6.4.5 Wall Thickness
The formula in Clause 4.3.3.1.1 of CSA Z662 will be used to determine the
minimum wall thickness of the line pipe used for the pipeline loop. Stresses
will be calculated to determine any restrictions on installation temperatures.
Additionally, the pipeline loop will contain short lengths of heavy-wall pipe as
required for crossings of roads, railways and major streams. The exact
allocation of heavy-wall will be determined during the detailed design phase.
The following table details what the wall thickness to be used in various
applications within the project is.

specified for consistency with respect to other applications.
Heavy Wall Pipe in Highway, Road, and Railway Crossings
In Alberta, the heavy wall pipe must extend the full width of the Highway,
Road, or Railway right-of-way.
Wall Thickness Transitioning
When joining pipes of more than 2.5 mm difference in wall thickness, the
thicker pipe shall be counter bored and tapered or a transition piece used.
Transition pieces will be fabricated from the thicker pipe and counter bored to
the thickness of the thinner pipe
When the difference in wall thickness is between 1 mm and 2.4 mm, the
thicker walled pipe shall be suitably back-bevelled to a slope less than 30° by
cutting or grinding.
6.4.6 Bends
Induction bend design will be based on the KMCI Specification
TMX1-MP2217, Induction Bends .
Induction bends will require the next thicker wall thickness over the thickness
of the pipe they are being installed in.
The table below provides the minimum allowable bending radii:

6.4.13 Water Crossings
The watercourses vary from wide rivers with extensive floodplains to
intermittent drainage channels. All water crossings, except some ponds, will
have a site-specific crossing design or refer to typical single or double sag
crossing designs.
From a construction perspective, KMCI defines:
• Significant Water Crossings as requiring a site-specific design drawing
• Minor Water Crossings as not requiring a site-specific drawing but,
instead, are represented by an appropriate typical drawing

Buried Facilities
Typically, foreign crossings will be crossed under.
Power lines
The owners of power lines will be consulted to determine voltages, potential
hazards, and if temporary raising of the line is required. Written crossing
agreements will be acquired.
Cased Crossings
It is intended not to use cased crossings. However, for highway crossings
that cannot be conventionally bored, extra large diameter hammered casing
may be used with the pipeline well separated from the casing pipe and no
end seal installed.
Cased crossings would be sealed and completely filled with a material such
as gel or wax. All cased crossing designs will be reviewed by Cathodic
Protection designers.
6.4.18 Parallel Power Line Relocations
Four (4) sections of power lines require relocation to eliminate the
construction hazard and to provide additional workspace for construction.
Power line relocations have been requested of the utility service providers at:
• Sleepy Hollow Road at Intersection of Hwy 93 (KL 379)
• Wynd Road (KL 379-KL 382.5)
• Sucker Creek (KL 372-KL 373), and
• KL 461-KL 466.
Power lines will be moved by utility owner.
6.4.19 Parallel Fibre Optic Cable Relocation
Arrangements will be made to remove the Telus Fibre Optic Cable from
KL 403 to KL 405 to facilitate construction. During construction, signals will
be temporarily rerouted through a nearby 360 Networks cable. A
replacement fibre optics line is to be laid into the pipeline ditch through the
interval between appropriate cable splice points. Due to potential damages
from pipeline construction, the section of fibre optics cable between about
KL 396 and KL 405 shall be subsequently tested for continuity and suitably
repaired as may be required.
6.4.20 Rock
Rock Coatings
Coatings, such as Rock Jacket (flexible concrete coating), wood lagging, and
dual powder abrasion coatings, will be selected to provide protection in rocky
areas.
Rock Shield
Rock shield will be applied in the field where backfill materials contain sharp
rock, which may damage the pipe coating.
IFC.doc
Date: 2007-06-12
Anchor Loop Project
Revision No.: 0
Rock shield, such as Tuff’N’Uff, shall be permeable to water to avoid

insulating the FBE coating from moisture in the soil.
Padding
Field installed padding may include foam pillows, select backfill, sand, and
clay padding. Select backfill will be used whenever practical.
Blasting
Suitable protection measures will be employed to protect existing pipeline, rail
line, and other infrastructure. Controlled blasting procedures will be designed
for each specific circumstance and monitored during construction. The
potential application of blasting techniques is described within the Blasting
Report in Appendix I.
6.4.21 Cathodic Protection
External corrosion on the pipeline loop will be mitigated by using a
combination of external pipeline coatings and CP.
CP will be supplied to the pipeline loop by approximately 16 impressed
current groundbeds located along the pipeline. Nine (9) of these groundbeds
currently exist and provide cathodic current to the existing TMPL.
Approximately seven (7) new groundbeds will be added to supplement
protection to the existing pipeline and to provide the additional current
required by the pipeline loop. The number of new groundbeds, type, and
specific site locations will be determined during the detailed design phase.
The table below identifies the CP facilities to be utilized for the pipeline loop.

The CP system will be common to both the existing pipeline and the pipeline
loop as it is the most economic approach and avoid potential interference
effects that could result if cathodic protection was applied separately to TMPL
and the loop.
The pipeline loop will be connected to the existing CP system by:
• the installation of bond cables between existing and new pipelines at
each end of the pipeline loop and at other discrete points as required;
• the attachment, if possible, of rectifier negative cables to the pipeline loop
at all grounded locations;
• changes and additions will be made to some of the existing groundbeds
due to;
• the increased current demands of the pipeline loop;
• the need to provide sufficient separation between anodes and pipelines;
and
• the life expectancy of existing anodes.
Test stations will be attached to the pipeline loop at locations approximating
those on the existing TMPL, as well as other locations as needed. Test
stations will have a maximum spacing of 5 km.
6.4.22 Buoyancy Control
The Anchor Loop traverses sections of wet, and / or muskeg-type terrain
requiring some form of buoyancy control. Screw anchors shall be considered
if there are favourable anchoring conditions and sufficiently long intervals to
be economically viable. Care will be taken to ensure they will have sufficient
hold down capacity for voided pipe.
Where the muskeg is shallower than the depth of the ditch, set-on or saddle
weights may be used when the weight rests on competent mineral soil.
IFC.doc
Date: 2007-06-12
Anchor Loop Project
Revision No.: 0
For water crossings and ditches full of water, buoyancy control shall be by
bolt-on concrete weights, continuous-concrete coating, or strap-on
saddlebags.
The pipeline will be weighted to produce negative buoyancy for empty pipe of
at least 5 %. Care will be taken in design to avoid overweighting the pipe in
soft bottom sites to prevent excessive sinking of the pipeline.
6.4.23 Geotechnical Design
Design for potentially unstable slopes will be given special consideration.
Side hill springs have been identified at KP439.4 through KP440.4. Sidehill
cuts will be limited to eliminate precipitating instability. Geotechnical
assessments will be made of sidehills to identify areas of potential instability.
As required, specific designs will be developed.
6.4.24 Hydrostatic Testing
Hydrostatic testing will be conducted in accordance with KMCI Specification
TMX1-MP4121, Mainline Hydrostatic Test Procedure, or subsequent revision.

6.4.26 Right-of-Way (ROW)
Routing
The route for the pipeline loop was selected, based on the following criteria:
• Minimization of impact to the environment
• Minimization of new linear disturbance; therefore, existing disturbances
such as TMPL route, other right-of-ways, roads, etc; were followed as
much as possible
• Minimization of water crossings and wetland disturbance
• Minimize width of right-of-way
• Construction Practicality

Chainage
For construction and design drawings and construction documents, slack
chainage stations will be used with Stn 0+000 at the upstream end of the
pipeline loop.
Stn 0+000 is at the west fence line of the Hinton Scraper Trap site in line with
the NPS 30 trap. The equivalent KP is KP 310.0.
KPs and KLs
“KPs” are the kilometre posts for TMPL.
“KLs” are kilometre post labels for TMX. They do not represent actual
distances. The KLs match KPs where they are adjacent and are “rubber-
sheeted” elsewhere to keep the same number of KLs as KPs, i.e.:
• Where the loop is adjacent to TMPL, the KLs will coincide exactly to the
KP locations.
• Where the loop is not adjacent to TMPL, the KLs will be assigned to the
loop by prorating the distance along TMPL to the distance along TMX and
spacing the KL locations accordingly. This technique will be referred to
as “rubber sheeting”.

Within JNP, legal boundaries are generally not available for roads, rails, and
other features, outside of the Municipality of Jasper. Much of the routing is,
therefore, based on distances from rail tracks, TMPL, edges of pavement,
and other physical features.
In JNP, the existing TMPL right-of-way is 6.1 m (20 feet) wide, within which
the location of the pipe is variable and may not lie entirely within the legal
right-of-way. The legal boundary for TMPL has been reconstructed based on
the 1953 legal survey and the TMPL ILI location has been overlain.
It is expected that the existing easement area within Jasper will not be
increased and the lands will have to be split into two (2) separate right-of-
ways where the loop and TMPL deviate. Wherever the loop and TMPL lay
adjacent to one another, they will be generally separated 4.5 m, centre-to-
centre, in order to reposition the 6.1 m right-of-way around both pipelines.
Elsewhere, the project follows other existing right-of-ways / easements (legal
or otherwise), roads or disturbances.
Mount Robson Provincial Park
In MRPP, the existing TMPL right-of-way is 18.28 m (60 ft) wide, within which
the location of the pipe is variable and may not lie entirely within the legal
right-of-way.
How the new legal right-of-way for the loop will be defined has not yet been
concluded. It is likely that the existing area within MRPP will not be increased
and the lands will have to be split between the two right-of-ways. Wherever
possible, the loop is proposed to lie 8 m from TMPL, centre-to-centre, in order
to reposition the 18.28 m right-of-way around both pipelines. Elsewhere, the
loop follows other existing right-of-ways / easements (legal or otherwise),
roads, or disturbances.
Much of the loop follows CN Rail’s right-of-way; and CN lands will be used for
workspace, with the pipeline being generally installed either immediately
inside or immediately outside CN property.
Construction is not allowed within MRPP. Therefore, the lands required for
construction must be removed temporarily from the park, requiring an Act of
the British Columbia Legislature, and returned to the park following
construction. The construction space required for the installation of the loop
has been identified early, so that the lands can be removed from MRPP for
the duration of the construction. These are referred to as the “Robson
Lands”, within the project.

The lands for removal or “Robson Lands” have been precisely defined
through the preparation of legal drawings. All subsequent design and
construction plans must be developed such that all disturbances and
construction activities remain within the “Robson Lands”.
Alberta (Outside Jasper National Park)
The proposed right-of-way lies entirely on Crown Land within Alberta.
The proposed Cougar Ridge Resort lies along the right-of-way near the
Hinton Airport Road, KL312.3.
The TMPL right-of-way is 18.28 m (60 ft) wide. The loop right-of-way is to be
18.28 m to 20 m wide.
Portions of the loop construction footprint will overlap ATCO’s abutting right-
of-way. Approval from ATCO will be required for use of these lands.
British Columbia (Outside Mount Robson Provincial Park)
The proposed right-of-way lies mostly on Crown Land within British Columbia
and is to be generally 18.28 m wide.
The TMPL right-of-way is 18.28 m (60 ft) wide. The loop is typically aligned
23 m to 28 m from TMPL in this section.
Extra Work Space (EWS)
Various lengths of temporary workspace, from 5 to 30 m in width, have been
identified for:
• spoil piles, storage, and general workspace; and
• truck turnarounds, etc.
At other locations, extra workspace will be required to minimize adverse
impacts on streams, water bodies, historical resources, and individual
landowners.
6.4.30 Construction Sites
Construction sites have been identified for:
• Stockpile sites for pipe,
• Borrow Pits for sand and padding,
• Work Camps,
• RV Trailer Parks,
• Contractor Yards, and
• Vehicle Parking.
Parks Canada will not permit operation of borrow pits in JNP. Material
requirements will be addressed through a specifically developed soil
management plan or imported from approved pits outside of the park.

6.4.31 Construction Access

All construction access routes off common public access have been

• Widening for vehicle passage, such as at Windy Point;
• Brushing corners for visibility;
• Bridges to accommodate construction traffic (Emperor Bridge on
Hargreaves Road);
• Bridge at Derr Creek – a temporary bridge will be installed for
construction;
• The existing Snaring Bridge and the Decoigne Bridge have been

Clean Up
Final clean up will be conducted according to the requirements of the EPP
and to ensure the sites disturbed during construction will be left in a state at
least as good as when they were first identified.
Pipeline Markers
All regulatory authorities require pipelines to be posted with ownership, and
emergency contact information. Signage will be developed that meets the
requirements of all regulatory bodies, and where specific requirements for the
signs are not given, the Alberta Pipeline Regulation requirements will be
used.
Pipeline warning signs will be installed at suitable locations, such as:
• Highway and road crossings,
• Water crossings,
• Rail crossings,
• Facility crossings, and
• Fence lines as required by landowners and authorities.
Warning signs at rivers and creeks will be in accordance with the Navigable
Waters Protection Act.
Pipeline warning balls shall be installed on overhead power lines as required.
Aerial Markers

Revision No.: 0
Aerial markers will not be placed in sections where the pipeline directly abuts
a highway.
Operational Access
Unless otherwise directed by regulators and the EPP, it is preferred that
access routes be left along the right-of-way for operators and maintenance
personnel to the extent that this is physically practical and with due
consideration of regulatory requirements and environmental requirements
identified in the EPP.
Permanent access will be in accordance with Emergency Response Plans
(ERP) and requirements for control points, MLBVs, etc. Control points will be
suitable for deployment of oil spill containment and recovery equipment.
Access to the right-of-ways will use existing roads, trails, and segments of the
new right-or-way, as required. Access to the right-of-way will be gated or
otherwise blocked to avoid creating new public access.
Land Owners
Existing land owners, such as Municipality of Jasper, Pocahontas Lodge,
Robson Ranch, and identified developments, such as Cougar Ridge Resort,
will be taken into consideration in the restoration of the construction footprint,
construction sites, and access.
6.4.33 Facility Tie-Ins
All tie-ins will facilitate internal pigging.
Hinton Scraper Trap Tie In
The upstream tie-in point is at KP 310.0 , which is immediately downstream
of the NPS 30 Block Valve 30 N (valve label),
The existing Hinton Trap facility at KP 310.0 will be decommissioned with the
equipment being removed to the extent of minimizing maintenance and
maximizing reuse at the new scraper traps.

Site (NPS 36).
6.5 Valve Sites
11 gate valves and seven (7) check valves (including one (1) at Jasper Pump Station)
will be installed along the loop. Additional valves will be required at the Hinton Pump
Station and the Hargreaves Scraper Trap Site. Automation of an existing NPS 30 MLBV
is also required at KP.310.0
Power, civil, and mechanical ancillary facilities required at the valve sites will also be
installed. Gate and check valves have been selected as sectionalizing valves. Pipeline
design will consider requirements of MLBV sites, in terms of space and locations, and
their impact on side bend locations and design, cover requirements, etc.
6.5.1 Gate Valve Sites
Gate valves will have valve actuators serviced by utility-supplied power where
available, or by an alternative, reliable, low maintenance DC/AC power
source where utility-supplied power is impractical.
Gate valves will be full-flow through conduit slab in accordance with CSA
Z245.15. All design specifications will be established during the detailed
design phase.
Automated Gate Valve Assembly
Each gate valve assembly will have pipe risers (NPS 4 or sized as required
for flooding and subsequent operations) on either side complete with isolation
valves and by-pass piping. Bypass valves will normally be closed. The valve
assemblies will be prefabricated from “rail wall” (20.8mm WT) pipe. Two (2)
joints of heavy wall pipe will be installed at each valve location. Valves will be
installed after the pipeline has been hydrostatically tested.
Valves shall be fitted with electric motor operators as per KMCI
specifications.
Power
Block valve sites will be serviced by 240 VAC single-phase utility-supplied
power. Actual power supply will depend on availability.
Where grid access power supply is impractical, reliable, low-maintenance
DC/AC power source will be integrated into the design. The system will
consist of battery, solar, and gen-set arrangements sized to provide all
necessary power for all lighting, actuator, and heating requirements.
Additional components will include:
• Transformer (as required by site)
• Power receptacle (for connection to auxiliary power)

Bradley Controlnet.
Data Communications hardware shall be of sufficient bandwidth to support
integration with Citrix systems.
Pump Station Communications
Both Wolf and Chappel pump stations will have four (4) telephone lines
connected to the public service telephone network (PSTN). One (1) line will
be dedicated to standard voice communications. The second line, connected
to a modem, will be used for SCADA backup communications. The third line,
connected to an Ethernet network modem, will be used for remote access to
PLC and HMI information.
The fourth line shall be dedicated to network computing.
Hinton Scraper Trap Facility Communications
Hinton Scraper Trap facility communication requirements shall be integrated
with existing communication hardware at the Hinton Pump Station.
Hargreaves Scraper Trap Facility Communications
Moscad radio systems described below shall be considered.
As an alternative, The Hinton Scraper Trap facility shall have three (3)
telephone lines connected to the public service telephone network (PSTN).
One (1) line will be dedicated to standard voice communications. The second

will be used for remote access to PLC and HMI information.
Mainline MOV Block Valve Sites Communications
Each of the block valves will communicate via radio, with an MCP-M (Master)
located at the nearest pump station. This Master communicates with the Data
concentrator PLC, then Frame relay circuits and onto CCO. The Moscad
master communicates via VHF licensed frequencies to a strategically placed
“repeater or relay” station on a mountain or large hill. This repeater station
location usually has “line-of-sight” paths to its intended block valves to ensure
reliable communications. This repeater relays the signal to the intended block
valves.

Z245.15. These will be installed at suitable locations such as the downstream
side of major river crossings where generally ascending topography is
favourable for a check valve function. Check valves shall be fitted with
manual gear operators. All design specifications will be established during
the detailed design phase.
Check Valve Assembly
Each check valve assembly will have pipe risers (NPS 4) on either side
complete with isolation valves and by-pass piping. The valve assemblies will
be prefabricated from “rail wall” (20.8mm WT) pipe.
1.0 m or less of “rail-wall” (20.8 mm WT) pipe will be attached to each side
of the pre-fabricated valve sections.
Two joints of heavy wall pipe will be installed at each valve location. Valves
will be installed after the pipeline has been hydrostatically tested.
6.5.3 Valve Site Location Criteria
The location of MLBV sites along the pipeline loop was first determined in
accordance with Clause 4.4, Valve Location and Spacing, of CSA Z662.
Additionally, in order to limit the consequences associated with a pipeline
leak and for pipeline maintenance flexibility, additional valves were added at
strategic locations along the pipeline loop’s route. The following were
considered in selecting the MLBV locations:
• topography
• the location of environmentally sensitive features and terrain
• population
• accessibility of electrical power
• draindown calculation modelling (Report is included in Appendix M).
A review of the draindown model was performed with more accurate
elevation data and with consideration to a proposal from Parks Canada to
add valves. The recommendations from the report are presently under
consideration. The report is in Appendix N.
The following table summarizes the locations and types of MLBVs proposed
for the Project and indicate the primary function of each. The locations may
be adjusted slightly to optimize the location and minimize aesthetic impacts.
The table below identifies 14 remotely-operated valve sites and seven (7)
check valves.

can be launched and received at full mainline flow.
The outer diameter of each receiving scraper trap barrel shall be a minimum
of 6 nominal inches larger than the size of the line (ie. For NPS 24 line, NPS
30 barrel would be used). A concentric reducer shall be used to transition
from the barrel size to line size.
The inside diameter of each launching scraper trap barrel shall be a minimum
of 2 nominal inches larger than the inside diameter of the line. An eccentric

Revision No.: 0
reducer (flat on bottom) shall be used to transition from the barrel size to line
size.
The receiving scraper barrel trap shall contain an internal cage to support the
scraper, and to allow product to flow around the scraper with minimal
obstruction. The cage shall be fabricated from perforated sheet or
assembled from bar stock (suitable for maximum weight and dimensions of a
given scraper). The cage and barrel shall have permanent tabs to allow
fastening and removal of the cage. A cage is not required for the launch
barrel.
Scraper Trap Closure Devices

End closures of the traps shall be quick opening, hinged (horizontal opening),
and be equipped with a positioning plate and an interlocking device which will
not allow the closure to open until the barrel has been depressurized. The
closure design shall provide a tight seal under the full range of operating
pressures, without relying on positive pressure inside the trap for seal
energization. End closures shall be designed in accordance with ASME
Section VIII, Div. 1.
Scraper Detectors (Pig Sigs)

Scraper detectors shall be a bi-directional, insertion-type mounted in a
Williamson coupling with flanged bases. They shall have adjustable
penetration.
Pig sig logic will be designed to alert the Edmonton Control Centre on arrival
of a scraper.
Pig sigs shall be located upstream of the trap receiving valve to confirm
receipt of the pig at the trap facility and downstream of the trap receiving
valve to confirm that the pig is in the barrel.
A pig sig shall be located downstream of the trap sending valve to confirm the
pig has left the trap facility.
Temperature Measurement
Temperature measurement is not required at valve sites.
Crossover and Auxiliary Piping

Auxiliary piping shall include gravity-flow drains from scraper trap barrels and
thermal relief valves to the local sump.
Drain piping shall be installed above ground, complete with electrical heat
tracing and insulation. Drain cleanouts shall also be installed where required.
Pressure Measurement
Pressure measurement shall be addressed during detailed design.
Pressure Relief
Pressure relief shall be addressed during detailed design.

Revision No.: 0
Human Machine Interface (HMI)

HMI shall be required at pump stations and scraper trap stations.
The Hinton Trap facility shall be integrated with the Hinton Pump Station HMI.
It shall be confirmed during detailed design that the existing power and HMI
interface at Hinton are able to support the trap facilities.
The HMI at the existing trap station near Hinton shall be relocated to
Hargreaves trap station.
A personal computer, configured with appropriate hardware interface and
software shall be used as an HMI. Screens will be developed to mimic station
piping and shall dynamically refresh to display valve positions, unit status,
alarm status, event status, trends and process data. Mainline pressures and
temperatures, station and unit power information, vibration data, and any
other data that may be deemed important, along with all status and alarm
information, will be logged on the HMI hard disk sub-system. A standard will
be developed for HMI software programming to ensure consistent displays.
All screens will be the same at all sites with site specific information on
separate screens.
The hard disk sub-system will consist of two (2) 160 GB hard drives
connected to a RAID1 controller configured for disk mirroring. Files will be
configured to start a new file at midnight every day and will be identified by a
file name in the format yyyymmdd.log. All log files will be in .csv, .xls, .dbf or
.mdb format. Each file will be kept for a period of 366 days at which time it
may be over-written to save disk space.

Environmentally Significant Sites

ENVIRONMENTALLY SIGNIFICANT SITES
JASPER NATIONAL PARK

THE MONTANE ECO-REGION
Covering only about seven per cent of the park, the Montane Eco-region is critical for wildlife.
Warmer, drier winters and a relatively light snowpack offer some relief from harsh winter
conditions at higher elevations.
These lower elevation areas on the lower slopes and bottoms of large valleys are important
wildlife corridors especially during the fall, winter and spring.
This area is, however, also popular with visitors and most of the park’s development is centred
in the Montane—the community of Jasper, the Yellowhead Trans-Canada Highway, the CN
railway and most OCAs and park facilities. Because of previous infrastructure development, it
is not possible to put the Montane eco-region within a single zone for protection purposes. The
Montane area is shown on the zoning map (Map 2) to draw attention to the limited amount of
Montane land that remains undeveloped, and to ensure decisions take into account the limited
nature of this important eco-region.
Parks Canada will continue to emphasize the importance of maintaining the integrity and
critical ecological role of the Montane. Actions will include research, restoration, human use
management, and public education.

POCAHONTAS PONDS
The wetlands of the Athabasca floodplain near Pocahontas are known locally as the
Pocahontas Ponds. This area of small ponds and active and dead stream channels is very
important to wildlife. The area provides critical winter range for elk and moose and is also
important to small mammals. Carnivores are attracted by these prey species. Numerous bird
species occur in high densities, many of which are not found elsewhere in the parks. Raptors
such as osprey and bald eagle nest here. The area also provides habitat for the river otter, a
species which is rare in the park.
Any major construction in the area (e.g., roads) will change sedimentation and erosion
patterns. Care must be taken that any development and use do not have a negative impact on
the area’s special resources.

Declared Wilderness Areas

WILDERNESS AREA
JASPER NATIONAL PARK

Internet site http://canadagazette.gc.ca/partI/1999/19991106/html/regle-e.html is a public site
to access the Declared Wilderness maps for Jasper National Park. This corresponds to the
Zone II Wilderness areas in the Jasper Management Plan. In reviewing these 1:50,000 scale
maps against TMPL's existing right-of-way, there are 24.7 km of the 80 km in the Park, where
TMPL was used as the wilderness boundary. There is a 25m offset from existing RoW
centerline.
The following approximate KP ranges are where TMPL borders the wilderness boundary:
333.0 to 336.3; 339.3 to 340.8; 342.0 to 343.2; 343.7 to 345.2; 348.1 to 350.5; 352.8 to 353.8;
354.5 to 366.0; 399.9 to 402.2.
From east to west, the TMPL Alignment Sheets that cover the Trans Mountain route in Jasper
are:
• 83903 Miette 83F/4
• 83919 Snaring River 83E/1
• 83913 Jasper 83D/16
