On May 22, the first oil tanker left the newly expanded Trans Mountain pipeline terminal in Burnaby, B.C., bound for China with 550,000 barrels of tar-sand oil.

This milestone comes 12 years after the pipeline’s original owner — Kinder Morgan — filed a proposal with the National Energy Board of Canada to construct a second pipeline alongside the one built in 1953, connecting the massive tar-sand deposits in Alberta to a tanker port in Burnaby near Vancouver, B.C.

Of immediate concern is the elevated increase in underwater noise and risk of a major oil spill due to a sevenfold increase in tanker traffic between Burnaby and refineries in Puget Sound, California and markets across the Pacific.
