BLM Rawlins Seeks Comment on Endurance/Barricade Gas Infrastructure Project

The Bureau of Land Management Rawlins Field Office has launched a public comment period on an environmental assessment for a proposal by Samson Resources Co. and Mountain Gas Resources, LLC to construct new access roads, two pipelines, two compressor stations, and install a high and low pressure loop pipeline in the Desolation Flats Natural Gas Field. Serena Baker says that the Endurance/Barricade Gas Infrastructure Project encompasses around 42,240 acres of primarily public land with a small amount of state owned land, about 25 miles southwest of Wamsutter.






To reduce surface disturbance, the two new pipelines, one 16-inch and one 20-inch, would be co-located along the new access road. Total surface disturbance is anticipated to be about 495 acres with the life of the project estimated to be 30 years.






Written comments will be accepted until Sept. 6th. For more information, call 307-328-4252.
