The line reaches 823 miles from the Canadian border at Alberta to the Midwestern U.S., and by November will be transporting 975 million cu. ft. of fuel per day, or enough to heat 1.4 million homes in the dead of winter. Construction of the $1.1 billion system began in the spring of 1981, and has required on occasion as many as 5,000 hardhats and other workers, laboring at nine different...
