Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
We heard from the same group to which Madam May just referred. This was a concern about the fact that you have some pipelines that are buried at 1.6 metres and you have others at 0.9 metres. They're not all going to be buried at the same level.
However, when the NEB is considering applications for pipelines it knows where they're going to be buried and what the plans are, and there is no reason that it couldn't make the decision about what the appropriate depths could be. This provision would allow the board to set the appropriate depth in each individual case.
It is clear, as they say with alfalfa, that the roots can go down six metres. I'm disappointed that we didn't pass the last amendment. I hope we'll pass this one.
