Van Sun says TransCanada, others look for definitions

The Vancouver Sun reports in its Saturday edition Brenda Kenny, president of the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association, says the lobby group's top goal in 2015 is to persuade government regulators to come up with better ways to report pipeline incidents and problems. The unbylined item says Ms. Kenny's group is encouraging the recently launched Western Regulators forum, made up of the National Energy Board, B.C. and Alberta regulators, and Saskatchewan's economy ministry. The forum will provide a single website with common measures and definitions. The NEB, during the approval process for the Canadian portion of TransCanada's Keystone XL proposal, defined "incident" as something as innocuous as "literally a smudge of grease on a valve stem," Ms. Kenny said. "I mean, nobody minds reporting the valve stem smudge or the minuscule methane leak, but what I think really matters to Canadians is, 'What about this matters to the environment or to my personal safety? Is that transparent and are people acting on it?'" While Canadian Energy Pipeline Association members file hundreds of incident every year, the association said the actual number of "significant" incidents average fewer than three a year.
