The Calgary-based pipeline company did not provide further details about the nature of the incident, which it said took place approximately 40 kilometres northwest of Edson, Alta. in Yellowhead County.

TC Energy says its emergency response procedures have been activated and the affected section of the pipeline has been isolated and shut down.

The company says there are no reported injuries.
