Enbridge conducts a public awareness program that provides pipeline safety information to people who live and work along our pipeline route, local officials, emergency responders and excavators. All members of affected communities should know where pipelines are located in their communities, be aware of how to recognize a possible pipeline emergency and what to do, and avoid damage to pipelines from excavation.
Pipeline markers will give you a general idea of where a pipeline is located, but should never be used to determine the exact location of a pipeline. If you are planning a digging project -- even in your backyard -- it's important that you first call 8-1-1. Learn more about excavation safety.
Enbridge will work with local planners, developers and zoning departments to provide information about pipeline routes so that encroachments are avoided. You can determine the general location of transmission pipelines through the National Pipeline Mapping System (NPMS), which is online at npms.phmsa.dot.gov.
Our highest priority is the safety of people who live and work near our pipelines. Find out more about our emergency preparedness plans, what we do to prevent an emergency, what you should do if you suspect a problem near our pipeline.
If you have quesions about the location of an Enbridge pipeline in relation to your community, home or business, send an email to USpublicawareness@enbridge.com.
