Emergency Preparedness and Response Exercise and Training Program

Trans Mountain must file with the NEB,

at least 1 year prior to commencing

operations

, an Emergency Preparedness and Response Exercise and Training

Program for the pipeline; the Edmonton, Sumas, and Burnaby Terminals; and the

Westridge Marine Terminal. The program’s objective is to demonstrate the continual

improvement of responder competencies (including control centre personnel) at

all levels of the company to prepare for, respond to, recover from, and mitigate the

potential effects of emergencies of any type, including tank fires and earthquakes.

The program must include the following:

a) a defined scope, other objectives in addition to those noted above, and program

targets that address responder turn-over and ensure responders’ ongoing

training and practice;

b) a list of mandatory courses for responders;

c) a discussion of how Trans Mountain will train its personnel to respond to

all hydrocarbon spill scenarios in various seasons, including releases of

hydrocarbons in mountain regions during winter conditions, into ice covered

watercourses, into watercourses under varying flow conditions and into

waterbodies (aquifers or streams)

that are used as municipal water supply

sources;

d) a description of, and schedule for, all emergency response exercises (full-scale,

tabletop, drills, functional) that Trans Mountain will conduct prior to operations

to test a variety of scenarios;

e) a plan, including rationales, for determining the schedule and frequency of all

emergency response exercises (full-scale, tabletop, drills, functional) to test a

variety of scenarios during the Project’s operational life;

f) a discussion of how emergency response exercises will meet the objectives of

testing Trans Mountain’s:

i)

emergency response procedures;

ii) company personnel training;

iii) communications systems;

iv) response equipment;

v) safety procedures; and

vi) the effectiveness of its liaison and continuing education programs;

g) a learnings implementation plan for exercises that considers how Trans

Mountain will update and amend its Emergency Response Plans and related

documents following exercises. The learnings implementation plan must

consider three main purposes:

i)

to validate plans;

ii) to develop Trans Mountain responder competencies (including control centre

personnel) and provide them with the opportunity to carry out and understand

their roles in emergency response;

iii) to test Project-specific emergency response procedures;

h) a plan for addressing the training requirements contained within the

National

Energy Board Onshore Pipeline Regulation

s

; and

i) confirmation that an independent third party has reviewed and assessed the

Emergency Preparedness and Response Exercise and Training Program and that

Trans Mountain has considered and incorporated the comments generated by

that review and assessment into the program.
