Kitimat LPG 5 Export Project
Pacific Traverse Energy is working closely with the Haisla Nation and the District of Kitimat to plan, construct and operate a 1.25 million tonne per year LPG export project in Kitimat, BC.
The project will include the following key components:
•• New railyard to receive railcars
•• New LPG pipeline approximately 15 km in length that connects the LPG transported by rail to Kitimat railyard to the marine terminal
•• New marine terminal that includes a floating storage vessel and supporting equipment
LPG transferred from railcar to interconnecting pipeline
LPG transferred by interconnecting pipeline to marine terminal
LPG stored at marine terminal for export by ship Project Benefits

INTRODUCE Our goal is to continue to introduce the project and build and maintain relationships.
LISTEN We will continue to engage and provide opportunities to learn more about our project and listen to feedback.
RESPOND We will communicate updated project information to the community and create opportunities for ongoing discussions around project interest areas as we move towards construction.
It is our goal to deliver an accessible engagement program and to provide the community with meaningful opportunities to engage with us. 15 What We’ve Heard
Since 2017, PTE has met with First Nations, government, landowners, community groups, and key stakeholders to introduce the project.
INITIAL FEEDBACK: •• The importance of collaboration with landowners and stakeholders on all new, planned and existing projects.
•• Questions about public safety with regards to our facility, rail transport and shipping.
•• Questions about the location of the railyard.
•• What can be expected in terms of employment and training opportunities in Kitimat and throughout the Northwest region.
NEXT STEPS We are in the early development stages of our project. Our focus over the next year is to expand our community engagement program, initiate permitting and undertake the engineering studies that will allow us to make important project decisions in 2020. We welcome your input and look forward to providing more opportunities for feedback. Suite 404 - 717 West Pender St. Vancouver, BC, Canada V6C 1G9
