Apex Expansion Project, Final Environmental Impact Statement

The purpose of the Apex Expansion Project is to transport an additional 266 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of natural gas on Kern River’s existing pipeline system from southwestern Wyoming to Nevada. Dependent upon Commission approval, Kern River proposes to begin construction in the fall 2010 and place the facilities into operation in November 2011. Kern River proposes to construct and operate: • approximately 27.6 miles of 36 – inch – diameter natural gas transmission pipeline loop extending southwest in Utah from Morgan County through Davis County to Salt Lake County • one new 30,000 horsepower compressor station (known as Milford Compressor Station) in Beaver County, Utah; • modifications to four existing compressor stations to add additional compressor (the Coyote creek Compressor Station located in Uinta County, Wyoming; the Elberta Compressor Station located in Utah County; and the Dry Lake Compressor Station located in Clark County, Nevada); • six mainline valves (four new and two existing that require modifications;) and • three pig launcher and two pig receiver facilities

Kern River APEX Expansion Project

The Apex Expansion Project included the construction of 28 miles of 38in pipeline called the Wasatch Loop and other facilities in the Kern River interstate pipeline system. Owned and operated by Kern River Gas Transmission Company, the Kern River pipeline has been operational since 1992. The $373m expansion increased the natural gas transmission capacity of the pipeline system by 266mmcf/d.

Kern River Gas Transmission Company

Kern River Gas Transmission Company, based in Salt Lake City, Utah, operates an interstate natural gas pipeline extending from the oil and gas producing fields of southwestern Wyoming, through Utah and Nevada, to the San Joaquin Valley near Bakersfield, California. Kern River’s system totals approximately 1,700 miles of 36- and 42-inch diameter steel pipe. Kern River utilizes 12 automated compressor stations spread across four states. The compressor units at these stations have a total system compression of approximately 384,220 horsepower. The pipeline currently has a design capacity of 2.17 billion cubic feet per day. Kern River's fully automated real-time pipeline is controlled from the gas control center in Salt Lake City. Kern River's gas controllers can monitor what is flowing through the pipeline at the exact time it is flowing. Kern River is a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy.
