Klagetoh

Transwestern said Thursday morning the most recent update on a fire that had been threatening Station 4 in Klagetoh, AZ (see Daily GPI, July 5) was favorable. The incident command post for directing firefighting operations had been moved off the road to Transwestern’s station to a location about 10 miles south of the station. The remaining issue in the Station 4 area was back fires that appeared to be almost contained, the pipeline said. The “incident commander has indicated that it is possible that by mid-afternoon the situation will be contained to the extent [Transwestern] can possibly resume service at the station,” a bulletin board posting said. Based on current information, the posting continued, Transwestern would be accepting full shipper Timely cycle nominations for Friday’s gas day and would raise Thoreau West system capacity from 1,040,000 MMBtu/d to 1,210,000 MMBtu/d.
