Sullivan Canyon to Re-open December 18

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

From Sharon O’Rourke at The Gas Company

We have completed the pipeline work and currently demobilizing the equipment.  We should be out by Friday and the Canyon will be re-open to the public as of Saturday, 12/18.  This took longer than anticipated, and the rains we experienced delayed our construction.

Sullivan Canyon to Experience More Closures

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010

From Sharon O’Rourke of The Gas Company.

If you’ve been through Sullivan Canyon this year, you have noticed that our maintenance road sustained significant damage from the February heavy rains.  As a result, we will have to repair the road before we resume our pipeline protection plan with the concrete mats.  Despite the rains, the concrete mats performed as expected and over time, it will be covered with natural material.

The road repair is currently scheduled to start on 5/24 and will take between 2-3 weeks.  We will close the canyon while this work takes place.  At this time we do not have a start date for the pipeline protection work so it is possible we may re-open the canyon to the public until we start the pipeline work which is currently scheduled for sometime between mid-June to mid-July.  This work, which includes laying the concrete mats to cover the remaining 12 pipeline exposure areas, is expected to take 3 – 4 months and will involve closing the canyon.
