Enbridge to host coffee and baked goods event to thank Taylor community

TAYLOR, B.C. — A local energy company is offering coffee and baked goods to thank the community for their support.

Enbridge is extending an invitation to visit The Caffeination Station on December 9th from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. for complimentary coffee and baked goods. 

Attendees will get a chance to drive through and meet the construction team to get details about the Aspen Point program’s construction progress as well as enjoy the Enbridge giveaways. 

Dave Challoner, Enbridge manager of projects and Aspen Point program project lead, said: “As we near the halfway mark of completing construction of the Aspen Point program, we want the community to know how much we appreciate their continued patience and support.

“This event is a small gesture of our appreciation and an opportunity for us to connect directly with the community members while enjoying our morning cup of coffee.”

The Aspen Point program is an expansion of the northern section of Enbridge’s west coast natural gas system, including the construction of a compressor station called Wochiigii. 

The project includes the installation of a pipeline, electric drive compressor units with powerlines, new meter station and compressor station modifications. 

With the new additions, the transportation capacity is set to increase to 535 million cubic feet per day. 

The construction that started in April has been targeted to finish by the end of next year.
