High Speed Refueling Compound Petroleum Pipeline, Phase 1 - 19 Wing Comox

The Proposed Project

The Department of National Defence (DND) has proposed a project at 19 Wing Comox. This Project includes the installation of a new petroleum, oil, and lubricants pumphouse and double walled underground aviation fuel supply to a new High Speed Refueling Compound (HSRC). The pipeline will carry fuel from the existing tank farm to the new HSRC. The HSRC will be comprised of two 27,000 litre aboveground tanks, aboveground piping, controls, as well as supporting infrastructure including utility connections (electrical and storm sewers) and spill/secondary containment measures (i.e. oil water separator(s)). These works are being completed to ensure that fuel storage and transport are in compliance with Storage Tank Systems for Petroleum Products and Allied Petroleum Products Regulations (CEPA SOR-2008/197).
