How do I know if there’s a pipeline near my home, workplace or community?

You can recognize the approximate location of an Enbridge pipeline by identifying the pipeline markers. Markers should never be used as a reference for the exact location of a pipeline.

All pipeline markers provide the name of the pipeline operator, product being transported and a telephone number for reporting pipeline emergencies.

The general location of transmission pipelines and contact information for the pipeline operators is available through the National Pipeline Mapping System (NPMS). Gathering lines are not included in the NPMS. If you are located in Texas, you can view both gathering and transmission lines on the mapview provided by the Texas Railroad Commission. In Canada, the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association operates the About Pipelines Map allowing Canadians to locate and learn about pipelines in their area. For information on gathering lines in other states that may be present in your area, contact Enbridge:

• In the U.S., e-mail USpublicawareness@enbridge.com or call 877-799-2650 (non-emergency calls only)
• In Canada, e-mail Cdnpublicawareness@enbridge.com or call 877-640-8665 (non-emergency calls only)

Do not rely on online mapping systems or pipeline markers when planning to dig. A call to 811, the national “Call Before You Dig” telephone number, in the U.S., or visiting ClickBeforeYouDig.com in Canada is necessary to properly locate pipelines and other buried utilities before excavation.
