W TE 00 FIE & RESCUE 900 II DU T i' AL LANE ¢$f a r R' WA`D`E 0 i 9 WISCONSIN 5359 ` tiot ot; fi( iteci Sep . r2,2014 Town of Medina 50 East Waterloo Road Waterloo,WI 53594 ATTN: Medina Planning Commission Medina Board of Supervisors As you may be aware, Enbridge Energy, Limited Partnership (Enbridge) has been in the process of securing permits to allow for the construction of a new pumping station adjacent to the existing station on Cherry Lane, in Medina.One of the issues raised during this process concerned emergency response, a function that rests with the Marshall&Waterloo Fire Departments. As a representative of the Waterloo Fire Department, I can attest that I have met with Enbridge and received copies of their latest emergency action response plan.Contained within the plan are details on emergency equipment available, material safety data sheets and other information essential for our operation should an emergency occur. I was also made aware of the emergency response equipment that Enbridge has; equipment that is ready to respond from Fort Atkinson. In addition, it is important to note that those who work on the pipeline and pumping station on a daily basis (and who would also respond in an emergency) live in our nearby communities and are available for an immediate, timely response. Finally, once the pumping station is completed, Enbridge had agreed to host both departments at the station for a training exercise. From an emergency response perspective, I am comfortable with the Waterloo Fire Department responding to any emergency that may occur at the Cherry Lane station, and I feel that all material we need to ensure adequate planning and response has been properly provided.
