Question No. 419 Ms. Kirsty Duncan: With respect to the risk of corrosion and spills and other safety concerns arising from the transport of bitumen in pipelines, and to government action to address these risks: (a) how does diluted bitumen compare with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) in terms of (i) abrasive material content, (ii) acid concentration, (iii) sulphur content, (iv) viscosity; (b) to what extent is diluted bitumen more likely than WTI to cause corrosion or erosion in the pipelines through which they respectively flow; (c) what is the composition of diluted bitumen in Canada; (d) what are all of the volatile chemicals, persi ...[+++]stent organic pollutants or carcinogenic substances present in diluted bitumen in Canada; (e) in the process of diluting bitumen in Canada, what are the (i) natural gas condensates used, (ii) other petroleum products used; (f) what is the process by which diluted bitumen corrodes pipelines, with specific reference to (i) abrasion, (ii) friction, (iii) high pressure, (iv) settling of sediment, (v) velocity, (vi) sulphur-reducing bacteria, (vii) other significant factors; (g) for all proposed or existing National Energy Board (NEB)-regulated pipelines, what is (i) the amount of hard sediment passing through the pipeline annually, (ii) the average pressure, (iii) the average temperature; (h) what, if any, (i) research, (ii) action, (iii) investment has the government undertaken to determine whether diluted bitumen can flow safely through pipelines; (i) what, if any, (i) research, (ii) action, (iii) investment has the government undertaken to determine whether or not conventional crude should be distinguished from diluted bitumen when setting minimum standards for pipelines; (j) what, if any, (i) research, (ii) action, (iii) investment has the government undertaken to design safety and spill responses and spill liability management capabilities that are appropriate specifically to diluted bitumen; (k) how does a diluted bitumen sp ...

fires and explosions resulting from ignition of flammable materials by sparks caused by induced fields, contact currents or spark discharges.

These have included educating the public about the dangers of carelessly handling lit cigarettes; banning or restricting flammable consumer products, such as some materials used in mattresses, bedding, and textiles; regulating ignition sources, such as matches and lighters; and working with the Canadian Council of Furniture Manufacturers to implement voluntary standards to reduce the flammability of upholstered furniture.

Alumina trihydrate, a flame retardant used in order to prevent the flammability of materials, in particular in the construction industry (plastic floors, cables, other garments etc.). The significantly high market share of the merged firm would result in the creation of a dominant position in the ATH market in Europe;

2.3.the presence or use of highly flammable materials in wall, ceiling or floor coverings and interior decorations is carefully limited;

Not only are the physical demands high but we also, on a routine basis, through the course of our profession, are subject to the exposure of hazardous materials, toxic combustibles, and communicable diseases.
