The Canada Energy Regulator (CER) has issued a notice allowing Trans Mountain Corp. to resume work on its Trans Mountain Expansion (TMX) oil pipeline project.
The company was ordered in April to halt work on a section of the project in Burnaby, British Columbia, for four months to protect hummingbird nests.
The C$12.6 billion ($10.17 billion) TMX project will nearly triple capacity of the pipeline, which runs from Edmonton in Alberta to the coast of British Columbia, to ship 890,000 barrels per day of crude and refined products when completed late 2022.
