Area Map <br /> <br />Budgeted Item: _YES ....x....NO <br /> <br />SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />The City has received an application from Enterprise GC, L.P. to install an 18" Natural Gas Liquids Pipeline <br />generally along the southernmost line in the West Fairmont Parkway right-of-way and lying within an <br />existing pipeline corridor. The pipeline installation will begin 3413' West of Bay Area Boulevard and 26' <br />South of Fairmont Parkway, projected North through the northernmost City Limits of the City of La Porte. <br />There are approximately 40 existing pipelines at the corridor intersecting with Fairmont Parkway and 38 <br />existing pipelines at the corridor intersecting with Spencer Highway. The pipeline will be tested to a <br />minimum 1850 PSI but will operate at a maximum pressure of 1480 PSI. This pipeline ultimately begins at <br />the Exxon Mobile property in Webster, Texas and will terminate at the Teppco Terminal in Baytown, <br />Texas. <br /> <br />In reviewing the permit application and plans as submitted, the City Engineer and Public Works Department <br />have approved the plans and deem no conflict is anticipated with existing city infrastructure or existing <br />pipelines. <br /> <br />The request meets all requirements of Ordinance 2004-2755. The application fee of $1000.00 has been <br />paid. Any future relocation of the pipeline permitted within the City, State, or County rights-of-way shall be <br />at the sole expense of the permittee. In accordance with Section 102-236 and 102-237, City Council must <br />review and approve the permit application. If approved, City Council will thereby authorize the Director of <br />Planning or his designee to execute the permit in duplicate originals, one which shall be delivered to the <br />permittee and one which shall be retained by the City. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff recommends that City Council authorize the Planning Director to execute the permit as requested by <br />applicant. <br /> <br />Action Required of Council: <br /> <br />Approve an ordinance authorizing the Planning Director to execute the permit as requested by applicant. <br /> <br /> <br /><5hk7 <br /> <br />Date / <br />
