Crimson Pipeline LP requested permission to inspect and repair its existing pipeline located in the Department of Water Resources right of way. Its Contractor will excavate an approximately 10-foot-long by 5-foot-wide by 7-foot-deep area to expose an existing underground 20-inch electric resistance welded pipeline. When the pipeline is exposed, the epoxy coating will be removed, and the pipeline will be cleaned and inspected.

A new epoxy coating will be applied to the repaired portion of the pipeline and the excavated area will be backfilled, compacted, and restored to original contours.
