certificate.
85 For Conditions 19, 122 and 152, “operating conditions” must include the Project-specific operating conditions, possible transient flow conditions, slack
flow conditions, and effects on operating pressure due to temperature changes.

Pipeline segment reactivation (Hinton to Hargreaves; Darfield to Black
Pines) – engineering assessment and certificate
Trans Mountain must file with the NEB for approval,
at least 6 months prior to
commencing construction
:
a) an engineering assessment for the above two pipeline segments, in accordance
with Canadian Standards Association (CSA) Z662-15, Clauses 3.3 and 10.15.2; and
b) a certificate with a supporting report issued by an independent certification
body,
84
stating unconditionally that the above two pipeline segments:
i)
are fit for service for the specified operating conditions;
85
ii) meet all applicable requirements of CSA Z662-15; and
iii) will meet the hydrostatic test requirements outlined in CSA Z662-15, Clause 8,
at any time during the certified period.
The certificate must be valid for at least 5 years and be validated on an annual basis

Existing NPS 24 delivery pipeline location
Trans Mountain must file with the NEB,
at least 6 months prior to commencing
construction
, its decision on whether it intends to “relocate” the existing NPS 24
delivery pipeline to the Burnaby Mountain tunnel (i.e., replace it with a new third
pipeline in the Burnaby Mountain tunnel) and, if so, provide:
a) details of any required changes to the design, construction, and operation of the
proposed Burnaby Mountain tunnel;
b) a discussion of the factors Trans Mountain considered in deciding to
replace/relocate the existing NPS 24 delivery pipeline; and
c) an indication of when Trans Mountain expects to apply for NEB approval to
relocate/replace the existing NPS 24 delivery pipeline.

Transient hydraulic analysis on the existing NPS 24 delivery pipeline
Trans Mountain must file with the NEB,
at least 6 months prior to commencing
construction
, the conclusions of the transient hydraulic analysis undertaken on
the existing NPS 24 delivery pipeline from the Burnaby Terminal to the Westridge
Marine Terminal. The filed conclusions must:
a) demonstrate that the analysis considered the occurrences of maximum surge
pressure in the existing NPS 24 delivery pipeline; and
b) support Trans Mountain’s decision to either retain or eliminate the proposed
relief tank at the Westridge Marine Terminal.
