The area is currently served from an existing 3 and 2 inch pipeline beginning north of Rifle near Colorado Highway 13 in Section 25, Township 5 South, Range 93 West proceeding east to its terminus in Section 31, Township 5 south, Range 90 West in New Castle, Colorado. The existing gas pipeline system, located in both easements and County Roads, is approaching capacity due to new development and growth in the area. Public Service Company of Colorado's (PSCo) proposed Silt Natural Gas Pipeline Reinforcement Project, scheduled for construction in May, 1999, begins at the existing Rifle -Avon 12 -inch pipeline and runs generally north and east to the existing PSCo system along County Road 214. The approximately 2.75 mile long project is more particularly described as follows: The new 4 -inch pipeline will originate on the Rifle -Avon Pipeline just west of the Southwest corner of Section 10, Township 6 South, Range 92 West in the proposed Stillwater Ranch development and proceed northerly. The pipeline will be installed in an easement to a point south of County Road 331 and West of County Road 311. At this point a new meter/regulator station facility, south of County Road 331, will be constructed. The pipeline then proceeds east along County Road 331 to the easterly line of County 311 where it will turn north crossing the Colorado River, hanging the pipeline on the existing bridges, to the Interstate 70 service road. The line turns east along the service road to approximately the west line of Section 11 where it turns north, crossing Interstate 70 and the Union Pacific Railroad. Interstate 70 will be crossed by boring under the highway. The Union Pacific Railroad will be crossed by using an existing gas line casing under the right of way or with a new bore. On the north side of the railroad the proposed pipeline will be located in an existing PSCo easement located along the westerly side of Lyon Subdivision, PUD and in an easement along the southerly line of U.S. Highway 6 & 24 to a point east of the subdivision where the line will turn north to intersect with an existing easement, acquired in 1961. The pipeline will then follow the existing easement terminating at the PSCo pipeline on the northerly side of County road 214. The exact route is currently being surveyed in order to generate legal descriptions, drawings, and construction plans. Existing easements will be utilized where possible. Any new easements to be acquired will be located adjacent to property and land lines whenever possible to minimize the impact to the land and land uses. All necessary land rights and permits will be obtained prior to construction. Ownership lists are being prepared with land rights acquisition to immediately follow upon completion of any necessary land surveys. The actual construction period of the pipeline will require several construction employees (estimated at 10-20) and related equipment on site such as: trucks, backhoes, welders and bulldozers. The project will require 4-6 weeks to complete the construction and restoration. The proposed meter station site and building, on the future Stillwater Ranch development, is being constructed with the agreement, suggestions, and recommendations of the property owner/developer. Only telephone and possibly electric services will be required at the site. After construction is completed approximately one employee visit per week, using a pick up truck, is anticipated. Plans are currently being designed to engineer the method of constructing the pipeline crossings on the existing County Road 311 bridges over the Colorado River, as requested by the Town of Silt. Garfield County and the Town of Silt will be provided copies of the survey drawings as soon as they are completed.
