President Authorizes Bridger Pipeline Border Crossing in Montana
/ 1 min read
Table of Contents
The President issued a permit allowing Bridger Pipeline Expansion LLC to build and operate pipeline facilities across the international boundary in Phillips County, Montana. The permit covers a 36-inch pipeline section extending from the border to the first shut-off valve or pumping station inside the United States.
Why it matters: This document is a required legal step for any pipeline crossing the U.S.-Canada border. It confirms the President’s approval of the specific crossing point and defines the scope of the project. The company must still secure right-of-way grants and satisfy safety regulations through other agencies, but this permit clears the federal border-crossing authorization.
Who it affects
- Bridger Pipeline Expansion LLC and its parent company, Bridger Pipeline LLC.
This action was issued by the Executive Office of the President; read the full Presidential Permit for the complete list of conditions and legal definitions.
