Our Guiding Principles
At Oregon Pipeline, we have six principles that guide our work.
Build a safe pipeline
The safety of the community and those constructing and maintaining the pipeline is our primary concern. We intend to adhere to the highest available standards and use comprehensive safeguards as we build the pipeline.
Minimize environmental and cultural impacts
We believe the installation and maintenance of the pipeline should involve minimal disruption. As part of our planning and permits, we perform thorough studies that gauge the environmental and cultural impacts of our project, which are then evaluated and mitigated.
Listen to input provided by the public
We are committed to working with all Oregonians, including property owners and policymakers, to ensure an open discussion of Oregon’s energy future. From public meetings to one-on-one conversations with landowners, we will listen to the community and address questions and concerns in an honest, fair, open and transparent manner.
Treat everyone fairly and respectfully
Being a good neighbor and active member of the community is important to Oregon Pipeline. We understand there will be some in the community with concerns about the pipeline, and we are committed to treating everyone fairly and respectfully.
Follow local and state rules and processes
We are committed to participating in good faith in all local, state, and federal regulatory and permitting procedures and to following all laws.
Communicate effectively
We believe open communication is important, and we are using a number of methods to communicate about the pipeline project. If you would like to be added to our distribution list for information, please sign up to receive the latest news.
