# Trans Mountain pipeline toll settlement approval > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/trans-mountain-pipeline-toll-settlement-approval > Updated: 2026-10-13T10:30:00.000Z. Sources: 18. Developments: 2. The Canada Energy Regulator (CER) has approved a toll settlement between Trans Mountain Corp. and its shippers, resolving a dispute regarding expansion cost sharing. The regulator determined that the agreed-upon tolls are “just and reasonable.” As a result of the settlement, the pipeline is permitted to contract up to 90 per cent of its capacity to shippers, an increase from the previous 80 per cent limit. This change allows Alberta producers to secure more capacity through long-term commitments, which are essential for the pipeline’s financing. The decision also cancels a previously scheduled hearing intended to address disagreements between the federal Crown corporation and its shippers. The 1,180-kilometre pipeline connects Edmonton, Alberta, to a marine terminal in Burnaby, B.C. Following a capacity expansion completed in 2024, the system’s nominal capacity increased from approximately 300,000 barrels per day to 890,000 barrels per day. The company intends to further increase capacity to 1.19 million barrels per day by late 2028. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-13: Five B.C. First Nations secure stake in Coastal GasLink Five B.C.
