Enbridge Venting Pipeline on October 17

Enbridge Pipeline will be performing some routine maintenance at their and valve work on its 34 inch pipeine within the South Cass Lake pumping station located south of US Hwy 2 and west of State Highway 371 within the Leech Lake Reservation boundaries.

 

They will be venting the pipeline with nitrogen which will cause a loud hissing sound to emanate from the Pipeline station. There is no reason to be alarmed as this is all part of performance work.  This may last from 4-6 hours.

 

There will be contractors walking on site to monitor an internal tool that will be traveling through the pipeline.  No ground disturbance will occur.

 

This work is scheduled to happen around October 17 but may change depending on weather. There is no danger to the public invovled.
