Document Description
PG&E proposes to perform maintenance on a high-pressure natural gas pipeline that crosses a wash, which is tributary to the Mojave River, located approximately 40-feet north of Soap Mine Road near the Nebo Area Marine Corps Supply Center. The pipeline was partially exposed during recent winter storm events. The work will involve fully exposing the pipeline sufficiently to examine the condition of the pipe, clean off any corrosion and apply a protective coating. To protect the pipeline from continued exposure, PG&E will install a 40-foot by 40-foot articulating grout mattress. The mattress is a textured concrete convering installed over the pipeline as a protective covering, which will be installed over the contours of the drainage like a blanket and then pumped full of concrete. The natural flow and floodway of the drainage is expected to remain unchanged.
