Levy stems from February 2022 inspection near Kitimat
The step was taken in answer to "erosion and sediment control measures identified by compliance and enforcement officers" during inspections of pipeline construction in Section 8 near Kitimat in February 2022, the EAO said in a statement issued Tuesday.
"Recurring issues with erosion and sediment control over the past year have resulted in ongoing compliance and enforcement action, though more recent inspections are showing improvements on the ground following implementation of a compliance agreement in July 2022," EAO said in the statement. In a statement, Coastal GasLink officials said it it respects the EAO's role in "upholding the high regulatory standards that we are committed to meeting," and stressed the fine is in answer to concerns raised from an inspection a year ago.
