B.C. Grants Trans Mountain Pipeline Environmental Approval

The Canadian Press, 11 Jan, 2017 01:50 PM

VICTORIA — British Columbia has granted environmental approval to the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline.

The decision checks off another of the five conditions that Premier Christy Clark placed on the pipeline's approval.

The federal government gave its approval for Kinder Morgan Canada's $6.8-billion expansion of the pipeline late last year after the National Energy Board recommended it go ahead if 157 conditions are met.
