Petroleum Landscape: Global Demand Growth Going Up

but USA Demand Going Down USA Supply Going Up Canada presently captive to USA Market and Pricing (99% of exports)

Demand: *Through 2030 China and India will experience average annual growth > 3.5%

contrasted with the declining demand for oil in the United States

Why Is The Project Controversial? Ideological opposition to oil sands

First oil pipeline to the northern BC coast (lack of local familiarity)

Unsettled BC land claims and concerns regarding impact on Aboriginal rights and traditional way of life

River Crossings & Marine Route

Crossing several significant salmon rivers

Legacy of Exxon Valdez

Legacy of Queen of the North

Imperfect Pipeline Industry track record

Enbridge Safety & Integrity

Objective is to be top quartile (goal = best) Integrity management Leak detection Incident response Worker occupational safety Public safety / environmental protection

Recent pipeline integrity activity 2,500 integrity digs

138 inline inspection tool runs

$2.9B integrity investment since 2002

Evolution in Pipeline Technology & Safety

Route and watercourse crossing selection

Stringent steel chemistry & strength testing Fusion bond epoxy coated pipe used & inspected Every weld will be inspected during construction Cathodic protection prevents corrosion during operation Enhanced protection: thicker steel, shut-off valves Pipe hydrostatically tested 24/7 monitoring from control center Routine aerial reconnaissance of pipeline ROW Increased monitoring with in-line inspection tools

Marine Measures: exceed regulation & current practice

Regulatory Requirements: Double hulled ships / multi compartment BC pilots (plus redundant nav-aid systems) Emergency preparedness and response planning

Enhancements to Safety: Tanker route simulation Improved navigational aids, new radar Vetting of ships and crew Weather monitoring criteria for ship transit Reduced vessel speeds in marine channels Tug escort operations (tethered towing) Closed loading and containment booms

Public regulatory review (Joint Review Panel) led by:

Economic & technical feasibility, socio-economic & environmental protection Q: Is this project in the overall interest of Canadians? Conditions?

Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (CEAA) high-quality environmental assessments in support of sustainable development

Q: Can this project be undertaken in an environmentally sound manner? Conditions?

Additional agencies, including:

Transport Canada Department of Fisheries and Oceans Indian and Northern Affairs Natural Resources

Rigorous and Open Public Review Process

Path Forward Our View

Public: Increasing appetite for fact and evidence-based discussion

Enbridge & Industry: Increasing focus on earning social license

JRP recommendation Dec. 2013

Conditional approval of Project i.e. with conditions promoting reconciliation (~ mid 2014)

As JRP hearings wrap up, engagement focus will increasingly turn to benefits

Scope for industry collaboration e.g. in training-to -employment initiatives 18
