APPENDIX “B” 1. Construction: - Minimize the area where the topsoil is stripped. In frozen conditions stripping area of 12” to 18” on either site of the trench.

- Minimize the width of the trench line (only wide enough to safely install the pipe and follow applicable regulations);
- The use of a wheel ditcher, if feasible for required trench width, and soil mulcher (in frozen conditions) during trenching. If use of a wheel ditcher is not feasible, Venturion will contact Stringam LLP to discuss trenching methodology prior to construction;
- Compact the subsoil in the trench line and the bell holes in stages from the safety zone upwards using compaction wheels;
- When permissible, replace the topsoil at completion of the pipeline installation; - If fencing is taken down during construction, Venturion will rebuild same at the same standards.

- Venturion to notify Stringam LLP to allow for an inspection of the equipment prior to the start of construction.
2.2 Washing Stations - Knocking or scraping off soil lumps and sweeping off loose soil and crop debris; - Use compressed air to remove any remaining soil and drop debris; and - Stations to be located at suitable locations if areas identified as high thistle infestations within the lands in question. Locations to be agreed upon by Stringam LLP and Venturion prior to construction.
3. Monitoring: - A representative of Venturion to ensure the above-mentioned commitments are followed and documented;
- A representative of Venturion to provide periodic updates to Stringam LLP during kick-off, construction and cleanup; and
- Any changes to the above commitments will be discussed with Stringam LLP prior to implementation.
4. Post-Construction: - Venturion to schedule phone calls with Respondent when inspections are being conducted on the Right-of-Way, so that the Respondent can address any issues at that time.
