The existing Rockcliffe Control Station is located near the intersection of Sir George-Étienne Cartier Parkway and Hillsdale Road and it is proposed to be relocated to a location more suited for its continued safe and reliable operation. Enbridge Gas has retained Dillon Consulting Limited (Dillon) to undertake the environmental study, including a cumulative effects assessment and cultural heritage report, for the Project. Once the study is complete, applications for the Project will be filed with the Ontario Energy Board and Canada Energy Regulator, as required. Subject to the receipt of all approvals, construction is anticipated to begin in early 2027 and be completed by the end of 2027. The Project will include the following components:
- Inlet Pipeline (OEB Regulated): The pipeline’s preliminary preferred route would involve the installation of approximately 400 m of nominal pipe size (NPS) 12-inch steel natural gas pipeline beginning at a tie-in point with the St. Laurent pipeline at the intersection of Hillsdale Road and Sir George Étienne Cartier Parkway. The proposed inlet pipeline would travel west on Sir George-Étienne Cartier Parkway before turning south on Rue Tennis and would terminate within the proposed new station’s footprint within the National Capital Commission (NCC) utility maintenance yard on Rue Tennis.
- New Station (CER Regulated): The existing station will be decommissioned and the new station would occupy an approximately 20 m x 23 m area within the NCC utility maintenance yard on Rue Tennis.
- Outlet Pipeline (CER Regulated): The pipeline’s preliminary preferred route would involve the installation of approximately 350 m of NPS 16-inch steel natural gas pipeline that would travel north from the proposed new station location along Rue Tennis, then east on Sir George Étienne Cartier Parkway, and would tie into the existing natural gas infrastructure on the north side of Sir George-Étienne Cartier Parkway.
A public information session will be held to provide residents with an opportunity to review the proposed Project, ask questions, and provide input. Members of the public, regulatory agencies, Indigenous communities, directly impacted stakeholders and other interested persons are invited to participate.
