FRPresidential Permit: Authorizing Bakken Pipeline Company LP to Construct, Connect, Operate, and Maintain Pipeline Facilities at Burke County, North Dakota, at the International Boundary Between the United States and Canada
President Donald J. Trump issued this presidential permit to let Bakken Pipeline Company LP construct, connect, operate, and maintain a cross-border pipeline facility near Portal, North Dakota, at the U.S.-Canada border. The permit covers a 24-inch pipeline segment used to transport crude oil and a wide range of petroleum products between the two countries, while making clear that the project still must follow all applicable federal, state, and local laws and safety rules. It also sets the terms for federal inspection, requires the company to obtain other needed permits and rights-of-way, and bars major changes to the border facilities without further presidential approval. The permit further spells out what happens if it is revoked or surrendered, including removal of the facilities at the company’s expense, and reserves the government’s right to take control of the facilities if needed for national security.
