The Monongahela National Forest - one of the most biologically diverse national forests in the U.S. – also happens to be along the pathway of the WB XPress natural gas pipeline, which was placed into service last month. Work on the WBX included upgrading and enhancing an existing TransCanada pipeline system that has been safely serving customers for over 60 years. For nearly four years, TransCanada worked closely with various MNF resource specialists, including soil scientists, wildlife biologists, hydrologists, aquatic biologists, and botanists during the planning, permitting and construction phases of the project.

TC Energy announced an expansion to our extensive NOVA Gas Transmission Ltd. (NGTL) System will deliver more natural gas from the prolific WCSB to markets within Alberta, while an expansion to our ANR Pipeline (ANR) will provide a seamless path for Canadian production to access growing Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) export and other markets along the U.S. Gulf Coast.

TransCanada went to great lengths to ensure that no harm was done to the hundreds of snakes they found during a recent pipeline maintenance project on the prairies of southeastern Alberta. While they may not be cuddly or “aww”-inspiring to many people, snakes play an important role in the ecosystem.

TC Energy Corporation today announced the Nebraska Supreme Court has affirmed the November 2017 decision by the Nebraska Public Service Commission that approved the Keystone XL Pipeline route through the state. “The Supreme Court decision is another important step as we advance towards building this vital energy infrastructure project,” said Russ Girling, TC Energy’s President and Chief Executive Office...

We have shut down the Keystone Pipeline System and mobilized people and equipment in response to a confirmed release of oil into a creek in Washington County, Kan., approximately 20 miles (32 kilometres) south of Steele City, Neb.

On the Buckeye XPress (BXP)  project in southern Ohio, four state-approved herpetologists are on speed dial with TC Energy’s construction team. Part of the pipeline is near a snake hibernaculum, or winter snake den, where species protected by the state, such as the timber rattlesnake, are known to roam. For that reason, the BXP team has put in place mitigation measures to ensure the safety of snakes—as well as its workers from the venomous reptiles.

TC Energy’s 1,412-mile (2,272-km) Northern Border Pipeline Company (NBPL) connects natural gas reserves in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin with consumers in the Midwestern U.S. as well as receives and transports U.S.-produced natural gas.

“From the time you get up in the morning until you go to bed at night, it’s difficult to find a moment when you haven’t used energy transported by a pipeline.” – Canadian Energy Pipeline Association (CEPA)
