Union Gas’ Hamilton – Milton
Project will help meet growing
demand to provide affordable,
safe and reliable natural gas to
homes and business throughout
Ontario and beyond.

Starting early May 2016, with planned completion at the end of October 2016 and clean-up concluding in Summer 2017,
Union gas is constructing a 20 kilometre, 48 inch diameter steel natural gas pipeline between the existing Union Gas
Hamilton Valve Site (located near Highway 6 and Carlisle Road) and the existing Union Gas Milton Gate Station
(located south of Derry Road between Ontario Street and Third Line). This project will be constructed in accordance
with the Ontario Energy Board approval issued in 2015.
Existing Natural Gas
Pipeline Corridor
WHY IS UNION GAS UNDERTAKING THIS PROJECT?
The demands on our existing natural gas
system are increasing. It is currently
operating near capacity and there is a need
to move greater volumes of natural gas to
help provide affordable, safe and reliable
supply to 1.4 million homes and businesses
across Ontario and beyond.
PROJECT TIMELINE
Serving more than 400 communities in Ontario, we consider
ourselves strong community partners who believe in and
are committed to public consultation.
During the planning stages for this project, we have
consulted with affected landowners, municipalities,
First Nations and Métis Nations, permitting
authorities and the local community. Your voices
have been heard through community information sessions,
one-on-one meetings, the Ontario Energy Board and the
Niagara Escarpment Commission public review process.

Replanting at least twice the area of woodlot cut
Enhancements to Limestone Creek and Sixteen Mile Creek
and so much more…
OUR TREE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
For those projects where it is necessary to remove trees from an established woodlot,
we will plant at least twice the number of trees removed by area.
$
Our Tree Replacement Program offers landowners
a choice of native species that we will plant on
another area of their own property, or donate to a local
conservation group.
If a landowner does not wish to participate in the program
or can only use some of the allotted trees, the remainder
will be donated to the local conservation authority or
area interest group to ensure the trees are planted within
the same geographic area.
BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOUR IS IMPORTANT TO US
We live and work in over 400 communities across Ontario and it’s our goal
to be a good neighbour in each one.
Consult with landowners, stakeholders and
First Nation and Métis communities to learn what
is important when determining new facilities locations
Conduct municipal meetings, as well as public
information sessions about our projects
Involve communities in decision making to help
address environmental, social or cultural sensitivities
Invest in relationships and training with
emergency first responders
Develop community safety and emergency
preparedness programs
Support community initiatives through donations
for charitable organizations, sponsorships, in-kind
contributions and volunteerism
“
Our partnership with Union Gas and the financial support we receive sends
a strong message to under-represented groups in communities across Ontario
that they believe creating a diverse and talented workforce is imperative to
the economic viability of this province.
— GAIL SMYTH, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF SKILLS ONTARIO
”
HOW WE BUILD NATURAL GAS PIPELINES
Union Gas builds our network of pipelines with great care,
thoughtful planning, environmental stewardship and safe,
well-established best practices.
We carefully plan every step of the project so we can install
the pipeline and restore the area to its previous state as
quickly as possible.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW DURING CONSTRUCTION
We are committed to minimizing the disruption to the local community
during construction.
ROAD AND SIDEWALK
CLOSURES:
Union Gas will be making every
effort to minimize road closures
through the use of underground
construction whenever possible.
When road closures are required you
will see both road signage and notices
in the local paper 2 weeks prior.
Sidewalks will follow an identical
process for roads. Every effort will
be made to have minimal impact
on sidewalk closures through the
use of underground construction.
HIKING TRAILS:
SCHOOLS:
Environmental sustainability is
ingrained in our corporate culture.
We’re working closely with
your municipality to maintain
maximum access to trails in
your neighborhoods and where
possible will avoid interfering
with trails.
Union Gas is working closely with
all four school boards. If your
family attends a school adjacent to
the construction you will receive
regular Union Gas Project
information and communications
directly through your school board.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW DURING CONSTRUCTION
We are committed to minimizing the disruption to the local community
during construction.
WORK-SITE LIGHTING:
TRENCHING:
Safety is our #1 priority. For
the safety of our workers any work
during evening hours will be well
lit. Our teams will make every
effort to avoid direct lighting
into adjacent residences.
The depth of the trench may
exceed 3 metres and the width of
the trench is 2 metres. There will
be no blasting required for the
route although extensive rock
removal is required.
SECURITY:
COMMUNITY LIAISON:
From Tremaine eastward the entire
construction Right-of-Way will
be fenced. West of Tremaine
fencing will be used as required
to ensure the highest level of
safety. In addition there will be
security provided on site 24/7.
Keeping you informed and
updated is our priority. Our
Community Liaison is available
as your one-stop point of
contact on any questions
you may have throughout the
construction process.
RESTORING THE LAND
Our restoration teams work hard to ensure the land is restored as closely as possible
to its original state.
THANK YOU!
On behalf of the Union Gas team, thank you
for attending the Hamilton – Milton Project
Community Information Session.
We appreciate your attendance
and would like to hear from you.
