on defense

CALGARY (CP) — Com-
panies seeking to export 5.9
trilllon cubic feet of natural
gas to the United States put
thelr heaviest corporate
artillery into action Monday
to defend ‘against Ontario
government criticism.

President G. W. Cameron

>, of Pan-Alberia Gas Ltd.,

‘president W. A. Henry of
Consolidated Natural Gas

Ltd. and vicechalrman John:

Beddome of TransCanada
PipeLines Ltd. told a
National Energy Board
hearing that their project is
specially desirable becawe
it would allow “‘prebuilding”’
of che southern part of -the
Planned $14-billion Alaska

‘Highway Pipeline.
- “Probably the “prime
benefit of prebullding comes

to Canada,"’ Cameron said.
“T think’ it’s a unique op-

portunity for Canada, a once- -

in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

Much of the trio's
-testimony was designed to
rebutt' arguments made
earlier by D. H. Rogers,
representative of the Ontario
energy ministry.

During detailed
examination last week of the
three-company export ap-

~ plication, which would mean
‘$18. billlon in gas sales,
Rogers suggested that such
export benefits could also be
ed by moving the gas
‘through expanded existing
‘Pipelines.
‘ Rogers sald that would

‘give Canada greater pipeline.

eapacity and noted that
backers of the Alaska High-
way project say their
pipeline will be built in any
ease, even if their ‘‘pre-
‘build’ export plan is
rejected.

However, Cameron said
Monday that the Alaska
Highway project without
‘prebuilding would provide
175,000 to 200,000, man-years
of employment, and 300,00 to
360,000 man-years with

prebuilding.

By building the southern
‘part of the project first and
using it to export Alberta gas
until Alaska gas can share
the pipeline, he said, con-
struction needs are spread
‘gut over a longer period.

That would mean less In-

tc: for ‘mailer

Cameron said the
economic impact would be
spread more evenly across
the country that way and
virtually all provincial
governments would get tax

. benefits, Exports through

existing lines would con-
centrate government
revenues on the Alberta
government. . ;
