Leslie Equipment Company has been an industry leader in the pipeline business for many years. Now with the introduction of the New John Deere 1050K PL Series Pipelayers, Leslie Equipment is poised to start leading the way in the “Big Inch” business. John Deere’s all new 1050K PL170 and PL220 are revolutionizing the Pipelayer indus-try with larger lifting capacities (170,000 LBS for the PL170 and 220,000 LBS for the PL220), a state of the art cooling package, a best in class cab, and a dual path hydrostatic system that allows the operator to be more precise along the trench. John Deere has also increased the width of the platform compared to the 1050K dozer by adding 10 inches on the PL 170 and 18 inches on the PL 220. This increased width will provide the tractor the necessary sta-bility needed when handling the larger inch diameter pipe. Along with the increased width of the platform, the track frames were increased by 12 inches giving this machine superior steadiness on rough terrain. The 1050K Pipelay-ers boasts a standard load indicator system that displays the rated weight of the load on the hook overhang and slope, electro-hydraulic controls, free fall, boom stop, and a 2 speed motor shift protection that will eliminate motor seal issues. John Deere designed these machines along with Midwestern, an industry leader in the manufacturing of pipelayer attachments, to maximize the strength of these machines and simplify the setup process for dealers mak-ing it easier to put these machines together. The ease of this setup process allows dealers to get these machines into the hands of the customer and in the field working sav-ing the customer costly downtime. John Leslie the Presi-dent of Leslie Equipment Company says “We are confident

that once a new Pipelayer arrives at one of our locations, we can have the machine Pre-delivered, assembled, and ready to be taken to the customer within two days.” John Leslie also states “The new process is much better than having to order a crawler and the attachment which would take us up to 2 weeks to assemble.” Leslie Equipment has worked very hard with John Deere to bring these new machines to the market. Todd Perrine the VP of Product Support for Leslie Equipment says

The operators we have spoken with have provided us with extremely positive feedback on these new machines. They especially like the lifting strength of the 1050K Pipelayers versus what the competition is currently offering. Leslie Equipment has been a top 5 John Deere dealer for the last 4 years straight. We currently have a fleet of over 1000 rental machines and supply other Pipeline attachments such as Allu Padding Buckets, Vacuworx Lifters, Rammer Hammers, Tracked Carriers, and Bandit Chippers just to name a few. Leslie Equipment has 8 locations servicing West Virginia, Southeastern Ohio, and Eastern Kentucky. Each location is equipped with John Deere trained techni-cians and parts departments ready to serve your needs. Please feel free to visit our website at www.lec1.com or give a call at (888)-694-4695. All of us at Leslie Equipment look forward to taking care of you for all your Pipeline needs.

PROPOSED PROJECTS & UPDATES Andeavor announced August 11, 2017 that the company has received enough commitments from third party ship-pers to move forward with its plans to build the Conan Crude Oil Gathering Pipeline. The 130-mile pipeline sys-tem will begin in Lea County, New Mexico, connect to a ter-minal in Loving County, Texas and then connect to a pipe-line feeding Andeavor's El Paso Refinery. The first phase of the Conan Crude Oil Gathering Pipeline will be able to move 250,000 barrels of crude oil per day. Future phases of the system could expand capacity up to 500,000 bar-rels per day. Andeavor officials reported that the system is already under construction and is expected to begin com-mercial operations in mid-2018.

Atlantic Coast Pipeline, LLCs and Dominion Transmis-sion, Inc. have received a favorable final Environmental Impact Statement for the proposed Atlantic Coast Pipe-line and the DTI Supply Header Project. A final project decision is slated for October 19, 2017. The proposed At-lantic Coast Pipeline includes approximately 564.1 miles of various diameter pipeline; three greenfield compressor stations totaling 117,545 horsepower (HP) of compression; and various appurtenant and auxiliary facilities designed to transport up to approximately 1.5 million dekatherms per

day (MMDth/d) of natural gas. Facilities to be construct-ed are located in Harrison, Lewis, Upshur, Randolph, and Pocahontas Counties, West Virginia; Highland, Augusta, Nelson, Buckingham, Cumberland, Prince Edward, Notto-way, Dinwiddie, Brunswick, Greensville and Southampton Counties and the Cities of Suffolk and Chesapeake, Vir-ginia; and Northampton, Halifax, Nash, Wilson, Johnston, Sampson, Cumberland and Robeson Counties, North Car-olina.

CHS (Cenex) plans to replace the 8-inch segment of line from Sidney, Mont., to Minot, N.D., with a state-of-the-art 10-inch pipeline. CHS has also made the important deci-sion to re-route the pipeline between Sidney, Mont., and Minot, N.D. The new route was chosen in order to minimize the amount of construction taking place in sensitive areas, while also avoiding difficult river crossings and numerous other engineering and land-use challenges. The exist-ing route of this pipeline runs from Sidney, Mont. near the North Dakota / Montana boarder to Minot, N.D., primarily on private land. The new 10-inch line will follow a new route for the majority of the 182 miles and will utilize existing easements for the rest of its length. CHS recently finished contacting landowners and conducting environmental re-

The FERC is preparing an Environmental Impact State-ment that will discuss the environmental impacts of the Midcontinent Supply Header Interstate Pipeline Project (MIDSHIP Project) involving construction and operation of facilities by Midship Pipeline Company, LLC in Kingfisher, Canadian, Grady, Garvin, Stephens, Carter, Johnston, and Bryan Counties, Oklahoma and leased capacity on exist-ing pipeline infrastructure in Oklahoma, Texas, and Louisi-ana. The project is proposed by Cheniere Energy Inc. The Midship Pipeline would draw natural gas out of production areas in the SCOOP and STACK plays in Oklahoma and into U.S. Gulf Coast markets. The project includes con-struction and operation of about 218 miles of mainline and lateral natural gas pipeline and appurtenant facilities from Okarche to Bennington, Oklahoma, and to lease approxi-mately 353 miles of existing pipeline capacity. Zone 1 of the MIDSHIP Project would consist of the following facili-ties in Oklahoma: approximately 198 miles of new 36-inch diameter mainline pipeline in Kingfisher, Canadian, Grady,

Garvin, Stephens, Carter, Johnston, and Bryan Counties; approximately 20 miles of new 24-inch diameter lateral pipeline (referred to as the “Chisholm Lateral”) in Kingfisher County; three new compressor stations, totaling 124,710 horsepower, in Canadian, Garvin, and Bryan Counties; nine receipt and two delivery meter stations in Kingfisher, Canadian, Grady, Garvin, and Bryan Counties; and other appurtenant facilities. Zone 2 of the MIDSHIP Project would involve 353 miles of existing pipeline capacity leased from the Midcontinent Express Pipeline LLC, and/or Gulf Cross-ing Pipeline Company LLC pipelines, operated by Kinder Morgan and Boardwalk Pipeline. The pipeline itself is ex-pected to enter service in early 2019.

Cimarron River Pipeline, LLC has filed a pre-filing re-quest for the Cimarron Expansion Project. The project would include extending Cimarron’s pipeline system ap-proximately 45 miles by constructing new pipeline in Bea-ver County, Oklahoma and Seward County, Kansas and leasing approximately 21 miles of an existing, currently idle pipeline in Texas County and Beaver Counties, Oklahoma, from Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline, Inc. An anticipat-ed FERC application filing date is January 2018 with antici-pated construction slated for January 2019.

FERC has issued a favorable Environmental Assessment for the WB XPress Project, proposed by Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC. Columbia is requesting authorization to perform the following: installation, construction, and operation of about 29 miles of various diameter pipeline; modifications to seven existing compressor stations; con-struction and operation of two new compressor stations; uprates and restoration of the maximum allowable operat-ing pressure on various segments of the existing WB and VB natural gas transmission pipeline systems; and installa-tion of various appurtenant and auxiliary facilities, all locat-ed in either Braxton, Clay, Grant, Hardy, Kanawha, Pend-leton, Randolph, and Upshur Counties, West Virginia, or Clark, Fairfax, Fauquier, Loudoun, Shenandoah, or Warren Counties, Virginia.

Columbia Gas Transmission has submitted a NEPA pre-filing request with the FERC for the Buckeye Xpress Project. The proposed project would include replacement of approximately 64 miles of existing, aging 20-inch and 24-inch natural gas pipeline from Vinton, Ohio, to Burling-ton, Ohio, on a portion of Columbia’s R-System. Columbia proposes to replace the existing pipeline potentially with 36-inch-diameter pipeline necessary to provide 275,000

Dth/d of additional firm capacity for the project. Upon com-pletion, the replaced line will be known as R-801. Columbia is proposing to place the project into service in November 2020. A phased in-service approach may be considered once customer negotiations are complete.

Columbia Gas Transmission’s has received a favorable Final Environmental Impact Statement from the FERC for its proposed Gulf Xpress Project. The Gulf XPress Project, a network of seven new compressor stations in Kentucky, Tennessee and Mississippi, will greatly broad-en the reach of low-cost, U.S.-produced natural gas from the Appalachian Basin. The project needs approvals from other agencies before FERC can issue a final certificate authorizing construction.

Columbia Gas Transmission’s has received a favorable Final Environmental Impact Statement from the FERC for its proposed Mountaineer XPress Project. The project would include about 164 miles of new 36-inch natural gas pipeline from Marshall County to Cabell County; about 6 miles of new 24-inch natural gas pipeline in Doddridge County; three new compressor stations in Doddridge, Cal-houn, and Jackson Counties; two new regulating stations in Ripley and Cabell Counties; about 296 feet of new, 10-inch natural gas pipeline at the Ripley Regulator Station to tie Columbia Gas’ existing X59M1 pipeline into the MXP-100 pipeline in Jackson County; an approximately 0.4-mile-long replacement segment of 30-inch natural gas pipeline in Cabell County; and upgrades to one existing compressor station (Wayne County) and two compressor stations (Mar-shall and Kanawha Counties).

Commonwealth LNG announced that the FERC has ac-cepted its application to initiate the Pre-Filing Process for a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Export Facility near Cam-eron, Louisiana.

line, compression and related facilities. The pipeline will be capable of transporting up to 4 Bcf/d of natural gas to the facility. If approved, construction start is slated for 2018.

Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company has received a fa-vorable Environmental Assessment for its 2017 Expansion Project. The project would involve construction of approxi-mately 40 miles of pipeline and appurtenant facilities lo-cated in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware to provide 61,162 dekatherms per day of additional firm transportation service. Final FERC approval is pending.

Enterprise Products Partners L.P. announced the con-struction of a new 571-mile pipeline to transport growing volumes of natural gas liquids (“NGL”) from the Permian Basin to Enterprise’s NGL fractionation and storage com-plex in Mont Belvieu, Texas. The Shin Oak NGL Pipeline will originate at Enterprise’s Hobbs NGL fractionation and storage facility in Gaines County, Texas. The 24-inch diam-eter pipeline will have an initial design capacity of 250,000 barrels per day (“BPD”), expandable to 600,000 BPD. This project is supported by long-term customer commitments and is expected to be in service in the second quarter of

2019. In addition to mixed NGL supplies aggregated at the Hobbs facility, the Shin Oak pipeline will provide takeaway capacity for mixed NGLs extracted at natural gas process-ing plants in the Permian region, including two Enterprise facilities that began service in 2016 and the Orla I plant that is scheduled to begin operations in the second quarter of 2018. In tandem with Enterprise’s existing NGL pipelines, this new pipeline will also increase the company’s capacity to transport purity NGL products from Hobbs to Mont Bel-vieu. Enterprise’s Mont Belvieu NGL complex is the larg-est of its kind in the world, offering customers access to approximately 130 million barrels of underground storage capacity, and 670,000 BPD of NGL fractionation capability. Enterprise is building a ninth fractionator at Mont Belvieu that will increase NGL fractionation capacity by 85,000 BPD following its expected completion in the second quarter of 2018. Mont Belvieu is pipeline-connected to the expanding U.S. petrochemical industry on the Gulf Coast, as well as Enterprise’s industry-leading LPG and ethane deepwater marine export terminals on the Houston Ship Channel.

The FERC has prepared a favorable Final Environmental Impact Statement for the projects proposed by Mountain



Valley Pipeline LLC and Equitrans LP. Mountain Valley requests authorization to construct and operate certain in-terstate natural gas facilities in West Virginia and Virginia, known as the Mountain Valley Project. The MVP is de-signed to transport about 2 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natural gas from production areas in the Appalachian Basin to markets in the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States. Equitrans requests authorization to con-struct and operate certain natural gas facilities in Pennsyl-vania and West Virginia, known as the Equitrans Expansion Project. The MVP facilities include: about 304 miles of new 42-inch-diameter pipeline extending from the new Mobley Interconnect in Wetzel County, West Virginia to the exist-ing Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company LLC Station 165 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia; 3 new compressor sta-tions (Bradshaw, Harris, Stallworth) in West Virginia, total-ing about 171,600 horsepower; 4 new meter and regulation stations and interconnections (Mobley, Sherwood, WB, and Transco); 3 new taps (Webster, Roanoke Gas Lafayette, and Roanoke Gas Franklin); 8 pig launchers and receivers at 5 locations; and 36 mainline block valves. The Equitrans facilities include about 7 miles total of new various diameter pipelines in six segments; new Redhook Compressor Sta-tion, in Greene County, Pennsylvania, with 31,300 hp of

compression; 4 new taps (Mobley, H-148, H-302, H-306) and 1 new interconnection (Webster); 4 pig launchers and receivers; and decommissioning and abandonment of the existing 4,800 hp Pratt Compressor Station in Greene County, Pennsylvania.

authorization to construct the LNG Terminal and Pipeline. The project is designed to create a new LNG export point on the Oregon coast to serve overseas markets particularly around the Pacific Rim. The LNG Terminal would be capa-ble of receiving natural gas, processing the gas, liquefying the gas into LNG, storing the LNG, and loading the LNG onto vessels at its marine dock. The proposed liquefaction facility would be capable of producing up to 7.8 million met-ric tons per annum of LNG. PCGP proposes to construct and operate a new, approximately 233-mile long, 36-inch natural gas transmission pipeline crossing through Klam-ath, Jackson, Douglas, and Coos Counties, Oregon. The pipeline would be designed to transport 1,200,000 deka-therms per day of natural gas to the LNG Terminal from interconnections with the existing Ruby Pipeline LLC and Gas Transmission Northwest LLC systems near Malin, Or-egon. If approved and the project proceeds, construction is slated for the 2nd quarter of 2019 with an in-service date projected of 2024.

Kinder Morgan Border Pipeline LLC is seeking authority from the FERC to amend its Natural Gas Act Section 3 au-thorization and Presidential Permit. KM Border is seeking authorization to increase the authorized design capacity

of its border facilities from approximately 300 million cu-bic feet (MMcf) per day to 450 MMcf per day. The opera-tional changes on KM Border’s intrastate pipeline system includes adding new upstream compression and would result in KM Border having the ability to move additional quantities of natural gas through its Border Crossing Fa-cilities. According to KM Border, the increase in capabil-ity to move gas through the existing facilities would be ac-complished by system modifications to nonjurisdictional facilities upstream of its cross-border facilities. KM Border further states that modifying its existing Presidential Per-mit and NGA Section 3 authorization would align existing authorizations with planned capabilities of its cross-border facilities to provide additional capacity to current customers and serve growing demands for natural gas in Mexico.

Medallion Pipeline Company, LLC, a subsidiary of Me-dallion Midstream LLC, recently announced the successful closing of its binding open season for a major expansion of its existing crude oil pipeline system in the Midland Basin (the “Expansion”). As previously announced, the Expan-sion will nearly double the capacity of Medallion’s existing Wolfcamp Connector mainline system through a partial loop of the Wolfcamp Connector system (the “Wolfcamp

Expansion”) and will increase the capacity of the existing Howard Lateral (the “Howard Expansion”). The Wolfcamp Expansion will increase the existing capacity on the Wolf-camp Connector from 105,000 barrels per day to 200,000 barrels per day and the Howard Expansion will increase the capacity of the existing Howard Lateral from 60,000 barrels per day to 85,000 barrels per day. Based on the binding capacity bids received during the open season, Medallion has executed a long-term Transportation Services Agree-ment sufficient to move forward with the construction of the Expansion. In addition, one existing committed shipper on the Wolfcamp Connector has agreed to extend its current Transportation Services Agreement to obtain the benefit of the Expansion rate. Once complete, the Expansion will provide much-needed capacity to transport crude oil pro-duced in the Midland Basin to downstream pipelines and markets. The Expansion is expected to commence partial commercial operations in the third quarter of 2017 and full commercial operations in the fourth quarter of 2017.

The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commis-sion has prepared an Environmental Assessment for the Millennium Pipeline Company, LLC’s Eastern System Upgrade Project. The proposed project facilities include

the construction, modification, and operation of the follow-ing facilities in New York: approximately 7.8 miles of 30- and 36-inch diameter pipeline loop (Huguenot Loop) in Or-ange County; a new compressor station in Sullivan County; additional compression at the Hancock Compressor Sta-tion in Delaware County; modifications at the Westtown Meter Station and Wagoner Interconnect in Orange Coun-ty; modifications at the Ramapo Meter Station in Rockland County; and other appurtenant facilities. The project would provide approximately 223,000 dekatherms per day of firm transportation service from Millennium’s existing Corning Compressor Station to an interconnect with Algonquin Gas Transmission, LLC in Ramapo, New York.

NAmerico Partners LP is proposing a multibillion-dollar pipeline to carry natural gas from fast-growing fields in West Texas to the Gulf Coast. The pipeline, one of at least three being considered to ease a looming gas glut in the Perm-ian producing region, would link to existing lines, including those that export gas to Mexico and to a Cheniere Energy Inc. liquefied natural gas export facility under construction. The pipeline would be the first major project by NAmerico Partners, founded two years ago in Houston. The company is backed by private equity fund Cresta Energy LP, whose

management includes former executives from Regency En-ergy Partners LP, a large energy infrastructure company that was bought by Energy Transfer Partners (ETP.N) in 2015. A spokesperson from NAmerico stated that discus-sions with prospective shippers were at an advanced stage, and the pipeline would begin operations in 2019 if enough of them committed to supplying gas. NAmerico's 468-mile (753-km) pipeline, named the Pecos Trail Pipeline, would transport some 1.85 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas to the major Gulf Coast refining and petrochemical hub in Corpus Christi. Kinder Morgan, which operates the largest natural gas pipeline network in North America, also recently outlined a plan to build a 430-mile pipeline traveling a simi-lar route. It would be able to move 1.7 bcf per day of gas. Enterprise Products Partners, another large pipeline opera-tor, has said it may build a gas line to Corpus Christi, Texas, from the Permian. Kinder Morgan has also said its pipeline would begin operations in 2019 if enough shippers com-mit. Analysts said the potential for new supplies could allow multiple projects to proceed. The projects are being planned as big producers including Exxon Mobil, Apache Corp. and Chevron Corp. are expected to pour billions of dollars into drilling in the Permian, a vast shale play in West Texas known for its low production costs and massive reserves.

National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation is requesting FERC approval to abandon, construct, and operate the Line YM28 & Line FM120 Modernization Project in Cam-eron, Elk, and McKean Counties, Pennsylvania. The natu-ral gas project would consist of the following: approximately 14.4 miles of new 12-inch diameter pipeline installed within existing rights-of-way in McKean County (designated Line KL); approximately 5.8 miles of new 6-inch-diameter pipe-line installed via insertion into the existing 12-inch-diameter FM120 pipeline in McKean and Elk Counties; abandon-ment in place of approximately 7.7 miles of the existing Line YM28 in McKean County; approximately 12.5 miles of Line FM120 removed from service in McKean, Elk, and Cameron Counties; removal and relocation of a meter set to the proposed Line KL; and new ancillary facilities includ-ing an interconnect in McKean County and miscellaneous valve and piping modifications. Construction slated for May, 2018.

Northern Natural Gas Company has received a favorable Environmental Assessment from the FERC for its proposed Des Moines B-Line Loop Project. The project would in-clude a total of 13.8 miles of 20-inch diameter pipeline loop in two non-contiguous segments and appurtenant facilities

in Boone and Polk Counties, Iowa, and abandoning two short segments of pipeline in Polk County, Iowa. The esti-mated cost of the project is $32.5 million. In-service for the project is slated for late fall 2017.

The staff of the FERC will prepare an Environmental As-sessment that will discuss the environmental impacts of the 2018 Expansion Project involving construction and opera-tion of facilities by Paiute Pipeline Company in Douglas and Lyon Counties and Carson City, Nevada. Paiute plans to construct approximately 8.4 miles of pipeline to upsize or loop four sections along its Carson and South Tahoe Lat-erals in Douglas and Lyon Counties and Carson City, Ne-vada. The project would provide 4,604 dekatherms per day of new natural gas transportation capacity to meet growing demands in the above mentioned areas and in El Dorado County, California. The project would consist of: construc-tion of 0.34 miles of new 12-inch pipeline paralleling Pai-ute’s existing South Tahoe Lateral pipeline (Segment 1); replacement of 1.58 miles of existing 8-inch Carson Lateral Loop pipeline with 12-inch pipeline (Segment 2); replace-ment of 2.34 miles of existing 10-inch pipeline along Pai-ute’s existing Carson Lateral pipeline with 20-inch pipeline (Segment 3); and construction of 4.17 miles of new 20-inch



pipeline loop paralleling Paiute’s existing Carson Lateral pipeline (Segment 4). There are no aboveground facilities planned for the project. Exxon and Saudi Basic Industries Corp 2010.SE, an arm of Saudi Aramco, the state-owned energy company, also have proposed building a multibil-lion-dollar chemical and plastics plant outside of Corpus Christi. That plant would use natural gas as a raw material.

PennEast Pipeline Company LLC applauded the FERC issuance of a Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), validating after nearly three years of scientific review and input from numerous stakeholders that the approximately 120-mile underground natural gas pipeline can be built with little impact on the environment. The Final EIS is the last major federal regulatory hurdle for PennEast Pipeline prior to an anticipated favorable order from FERC Commis-sioners that would result in approval of the project. Pen-nEast recently requested expedited final approval for the project from the FERC. The 120-mile Project is more than 90 percent subscribed under long-term contracts with local gas utilities, power generators and other energy custom-ers. Local customers will benefit from the delivery of clean, American energy that is slated to be approximately 30 per-cent less expensive than natural gas supplies from the Gulf of Mexico, which have traditionally fueled the northeast.

A study by Concentric Energy Advisors found that due to pipeline constraints in the region, consumers would have saved nearly one billion dollars during the winter of 2013-2014 had PennEast been in service. Prices during that win-ter spiked to more than 70 times that of non-peak periods.

A subsidiary of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. an-nounced a successful conclusion to the open season for additional capacity from the Delaware Basin to Cushing, OK (Sunrise Expansion Project). The Partnership an-nounced that it has received sufficient committed volume from shippers to expand portions of its pipeline systems to accommodate a volume increase of approximately 120,000 barrels per day of movements from the Delaware Basin and Midland to Cushing, OK. The committed volume will move on a combination of new and existing pipelines. The Part-nership plans to extend its Sunrise Pipeline system, which currently originates at Midland and connects with Colo-rado City, by building approximately 180-miles of 24-inch pipeline from Colorado City, TX to Wichita Falls, TX. The balance of the capacity will be provided by a combination of spare capacity and capacity enhancements to existing pipelines, which include capacity expansions to our Dela-ware Basin system of up to 200,000 barrels per day. The pipeline system will deliver to Plains' and third-party termi-nals in Cushing, OK. Subject to timely receipt of necessary permits and regulatory approvals, the additional capacity is expected to be operational in early to mid-2019.

Port Arthur Pipeline, LLC, a subsidiary of Sempra LNG & Midstream, is proposing to develop a natural gas pipeline in connection with the proposed development of the Port Arthur Liquefaction Project by Port Arthur LNG, LLC, and PALNG Common Facilities in Jefferson County, Texas. The proposed Port Arthur Pipeline Project would consist of two segments oriented north and south of the proposed liquefaction project. The 27.6-mile northern portion of the proposed pipeline project would extend from Vidor in Or-ange County, TX to the proposed liquefaction project, with the majority of the proposed pipeline co-located with exist-ing energy infrastructure rights-of-way. The approximately 7-mile southern portion of the proposed Pipeline Project would originate in Cameron Parish, Louisiana on the east bank of Sabine Lake and terminate at the Port Arthur Liq-uefaction Project. The proposed pipeline project would in-terconnect the Port Arthur Liquefaction Project to various intra- and interstate pipelines, providing access to a num-ber of major U.S. natural gas supply basins. An FERC ap-plication was submitted on November 29, 2016 and Port Arthur Pipeline, LLC anticipates FERC authorization by May 2018. Construction is expected to begin in the third quarter of 2021, with commercial operations expected to begin in third quarter of 2022.

Transco, the nation’s largest-volume and fastest-growing interstate natural gas pipeline system, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Williams Partners L.P., of which Williams owns approximately 74 percent. Transco has executed precedent agreements with subsidiaries of Nation-al Grid – the largest distributor of natural gas in the north-eastern U.S. – for firm transportation service under the proj-ect. Once complete, the project will help meet the growing natural gas demand in the Northeast, including the 1.8 mil-lion customers served by National Grid in Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and Long Island. Subject to approval by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Northeast Supply Enhancement project will consist of approximately 10 miles of 42-inch pipeline looping facilities, three miles of onshore 26-inch looping facilities, 23 miles of offshore 26-inch looping facilities, the addition of 21,902 horsepower at an existing compressor station; a new 32,000 horsepower compressor station; and related appurtenant facilities. The certificate application reflects an expected capital cost of $926.5 million and a target in-service date of Dec. 1, 2019.



From Julie Prejean - I'm just going take a minute to say how awesome my pipeline family is. Some pipeline ladies from my area here in Ohio participated in a food drive for a local church. It's a small church in need that of course helps the local folks with what-ever they can and one thing they do is help feed their com-munity. Their food pantry was just about out so a food drive was started and the pipeline wives heeded the call. Now we are from all over the country but our husbands are working here and usually whatever area we wind up in we usually do community projects. So, here is a picture of the group who collected the donations for the church. I just wanted to take a minute and appreciate all who contributed to this effort. Some who donated are not pictured as well, but thank you to all who helped.

Sterling and Layla Sowell are pleased to announce the birth of their sweet daughter, Raylea Jo on August 2, 2017. Congratulations on the sweet new addition to your family!

Bronc and Judy McMullen recently enjoyed a trip to Niagra Falls and on to Washington, D.C.

Please continue to keep Barbara Martin and Patrice Wagstaff in your hearts and prayers as they continue their chemotherapy treatments.

Sharon Ross recently suffered a fall and has a broken shoulder blade. Wishing you a speedy recovery Sharon! Sharon and Bill also celebrated their wed-ding anniversary on August 15th. Happy Anniversary!

HEARD ON THE LINE

Making memories! Happy 73rd birthday Ms. Langolais!
