PROJECT I-399: Chemical Cleaning L-119B Receiver - Sacramento, California Gas Pipeline

California, United States. The facility is part of a larger pipeline infrastructure network and is designated as a receiver for chemical cleaning operations along a 10.41-mile segment of the L-119B pipeline. The facility is currently operational and serves the Sacramento area. The facility operates under the regulatory oversight of the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and complies with 49 CFR Part 192, which governs gas pipeline safety in the United States. The NAICS code 486210 indicates that this facility is involved in pipeline transportation of natural gas. The facility's location in Sacramento places it within a region with a dense population and significant infrastructure, requiring adherence to strict safety and maintenance protocols. The environmental significance of this facility lies in its role in maintaining pipeline integrity through chemical cleaning, which helps prevent corrosion and ensures safe operation. The facility's proximity to populated areas and waterways in Sacramento necessitates rigorous monitoring and cathodic protection measures to mitigate risks associated with gas pipeline operations.

The facility is located in Sacramento, California, a region with a Mediterranean climate and proximity to the Sacramento River and its tributaries. The pipeline segment runs through areas that may intersect with residential zones and agricultural land. Chemical cleaning operations involve the use of solvents and chemicals, which require careful handling to prevent spills and contamination of soil and water resources. The facility's risk profile is influenced by the age of the pipeline infrastructure and the effectiveness of cathodic protection systems in place.
