MAGENHEIMER LEASE Gas Extraction Facility, Los Alamos, California

MAGENHEIMER LEASE is a gas extraction facility located at 7600 CAT CYN RD in Los Alamos, California, within Santa Barbara County. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS code 211111 for crude petroleum and natural gas extraction. It is part of the broader gas infrastructure network in the United States, which is regulated by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and DOT 49 CFR Part 192 for pipeline safety. As a gas extraction site, the facility likely involves wellheads, separators, and gathering lines to process natural gas from underground reservoirs. The regulatory framework ensures compliance with safety standards for operating pressure, material integrity, and leak detection. In California, additional state-level regulations may apply, including those from the California Public Utilities Commission and the California Air Resources Board. The facility's location in Los Alamos places it in a region with a mix of agricultural and energy activities. Its operational status contributes to local energy supply and economic activity. The site's proximity to populated areas and seismic activity in California are key environmental considerations, managed through rigorous safety protocols and monitoring.

The facility is located in a seismically active region of California, which poses risks to gas infrastructure integrity. Proximity to populated areas in Santa Barbara County requires stringent safety measures to prevent leaks or accidents. The local climate, with dry conditions and wildfire risk, adds further operational challenges. Regulatory oversight by PHMSA and state agencies helps mitigate these environmental factors.
