Wholly owned subsidiaries of TransCanada Corporation are developing the Alaska Pipeline Project, which will move natural gas from Alaska to North American markets. The project will stretch approximately 1,715 miles (2,760 kms) from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska through the Yukon territory and northeastern British Columbia to the BC/Alberta border near Boundary Lake, and will include new build and certain existing infrastructure within Alberta. TransCanada Alaska Company, LLC is responsible for designing and constructing the portion located in Alaska, while Foothills Pipe Lines Ltd. is responsible for the project from the Alaska/Yukon border to market connections in Alberta. For more information, refer to the Project Fact Sheet.

news releases

• Aug. 1, 2008 – TransCanada License for Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline Approved by Alaska Legislature
  

Alaska Gasline Inducement Act

The Alaska Gasline Inducement Act (“AGIA”) was passed into law by the State of Alaska in May 2007. Its purpose was to expedite the construction of a pipeline to transport Alaskan natural gas resources to market. AGIA offers certain incentives to gas producers and pipeline companies in exchange for specific commitments that will provide significant benefit to the State. After a competitive bid process and a thorough public and legislative review, TransCanada was selected by the State in August 2008 as the exclusive recipient of the AGIA license.

Read the Executive Summary or visit the AGIA website to view the complete Application for License.
