Pipeline is being laid out on both sides of Howell Highway. Here on the side of Purse Funeral Home.
Here West of Howell Highway. An old barn was brought down to make room for the pipeline that will run towards the steep floodplain bluff of Beaver Creek (right behind the treeline).
On the other side of Beaver Creek, the pipeline will pass very close to a county drain.
Meanwhile, pipes were delivered to the drill site in Heritage Park...
...and the open pit that took up the drilling mud was dug out showing that there is either no lining below the mud or the process of digging with an excavator is most probably damaging and puncturing the lining below, which should prevent chemicals from the drilling mud to drain into the soil. In preparation of the pipeline, a deeper new pit was dug next to the old one.
The first picture dates from 3/29/2013 and shows the original open pit.
