Foothills Zone 8 West Path Delivery 2023 Project - CER Approval Order

Located entirely within the Municipal District of Bonnyville, this pipeline is south of the City of Cold Lake, Alberta, and is connected to the NGTL System. The existing Cold Lake Border Sales metering facility was replaced with a new metering facility to accommodate the additional gas volumes.

This pipeline expansion project in western Alberta expanded pipeline capacity for the transportation of natural gas to growing markets located in central and southern Alberta from the Peace River Project Area.
