About 57km of the pipeline would be constructed alongside existing linear disturbances.
The project will include tie-in connections to existing facilities, valve sites, launcher and receiver facilities for inline inspection, and cathodic protection.
It will extend from a tie-in point in SW 08-91-16 W5M at the site of the proposed Otter Lake Compressor Station, to the site of the planned Carmon Creek East Sales meter station.
Temporary infrastructure would be needed for the construction of the project, the NEB said.
