From the April 2017 article it was supposed to go into the EXISTING RIGHT OF WAY IN THE DITCHES”"”on the ROAD!!

Google what happens when you get a major pipeline on YOUR PRIVATE PROPERTY..They can keep using eminent domain to expand and do offshoots.

Not sure — what if the county “wants it on Salters Lake Road??? What good does that do the residents on Jefferson???and the hope to expand a residential neighbor hood..This is adjacent to the old Alger Property..does this have anything to do with that?

Watch what you sign Century. Just say not NO but H##LL no. Don’t sell them down the creek for a few pieces of silver..

@ Dola (This person is exactly dead on. You been living on top of pipelines here for longer than most of you have been alive. Oh the irony)

Everyone opposed to the change and making such a fuss over it, apparently has no idea the number of lines already in the ground around here. Seriously?

Some questions : Once pipeline finished where does the gas flow from?
(Florida Gas Transmission off Fannie road)
Who is gas flowing to ?
(Ascend and Pensacola Energy)
Will the gas only be available commercially?
(see above)
Who owns the pipeline and the gas ?
(Peninsula Pipeline will own the pipeline and meter stations and will transport the gas. Each customer is responsible for aquiring and owning the gas)
What’s the potential for accidental cutting,digging,
(Alot less if you follow the law ie 811)
Earth movement etc ?
(Minimal)
Is the public at any risk ?
(Not if operated correctly)
Are any localized gas sellers involved with the pipeline ?
(See above)

@Neal
You must be correct plus the sentence..

“Salters Lake Road is a county road outside the town limits.” is telling

Remember the county took that over not too long ago.

I suppose if it ran down 29 it is just as dangerous. How does that effect the CRA and the the ability of the pipeline company to call what goes with the easement?

Interesting saga as always..and you will only get a piece of the story.

Ask the county what is going on with the Alger Building while they are up here.

The plan was to go down Jefferson, through the Historical District, all along. I spoke with the Cultural Resource Management (CRM) archæologists who mapped out the route.
