The Bureau of Land Management Tuscarora Field Office signed a Decision Record approving a right-of-way for a natural gas pipeline in Elko County, Nevada. Paiute Pipeline Company’s 2015 Elko Area Expansion Project would consist of about 35.2 miles of new 8-inch-diameter natural gas pipeline; a new above ground interconnection at Ruby Pipeline, LLC’s Wieland Flat Compressor Station; two new isolation valves; and modifications to PPC’s existing Elko City Gate. The purpose of the project is to expand the available capacity of natural gas delivered to Elko. The project would address the growing demands for natural gas, including increased residential and business load, and the greater energy needs of mining operations in the Elko area. The pipeline requires a 75-foot wide temporary right-of-way during construction, and a 50-foot wide permanent right-of-way after construction is complete.
