Enbridge responds to Lheidli T’enneh pipeline rerouting request
PRINCE GEORGE – Enbridge has responded to the demand from the Lheidli T’enneh First Nation.
On Tuesday, the First Nation formally requested a ministerial order to reroute the Enbridge pipeline, which lies across 130 kilometers of its territory and 1.5 kilometers of its Fort George No. 2 Indian Reserve. One edge of the reserve is less than 500 meters from the site where the pipeline ruptured and exploded in October 2018, terrifying nearby residents.
