Natural Gas Pipeline Expansion for Washago Community
Official title: Leave to Construct - Washago Community Expansion Project
Enbridge Gas wants to build new natural gas infrastructure to expand service to the Washago community in Ontario. The Ontario Energy Board is reviewing the application and accepting public comments on the project.
Why This Matters
Live in or near Washago? This project could bring natural gas service to your area. That means new heating options for homes and businesses. Construction may also affect local roads and properties during installation.
What Could Change
If approved, Enbridge would gain permission to construct new gas pipelines and facilities in the Washago area. Local residents could gain access to natural gas as a heating option. The OEB may attach conditions regarding construction methods, safety, and environmental protection.
Key Issues
- Should Enbridge be granted permission to construct natural gas infrastructure in Washago?
- What conditions should apply to construction and operation?
How to Participate
- Review the application documents and public notice to understand the project.
- Submit a letter of comment to the Ontario Energy Board expressing your views on the project, as shown in the example letter of comment.
