Letter To The Citizens O f Morrow County Pacific Gas Transmission Company (PGT), Bechtel Corpora tion and Gregory and Cook, Inc. would like to thank the citizens of Morrow County for their patience and support during the con struction o f the PGT Pipeline Expansion. We know that the pro ject has taken its toll on local roads and we want to reassure everyone that we are committed to repairing any damage caused by our winter construction activities. We are currently making repairs and recently finalized plans with Morrow County officials that should restore the roads to everyone’s satisfaction. Final repair work is expected to begin in April or as soon as weather condi tions permit. Expansion project work north o f lone to the Washington state border is scheduled to be finished by early May. Construction will resume west o f Condon in mid-July and be completed at lone late this summer. The Expansion, which will bring additional supplies o f natural gas to the Pacific Northwest, is an economic boon for Oregon. This year approximately 300 short-term construction jobs in nor thern Oregon will be filled by local residents. Communities close to the construction will benefit economically by providing hous ing, food, entertainment, equipment repair, service contracts and the like. Upon project completion, the new facilities will almost double PGT's annual tax contribution to Morrow County to a total of approximately $1.4 million. PGT is pleased to work with the citizens and officials of Mor row County and hopes that the temporary inconveniences caused by our construction activities are far outweighed by the benefits the project will bring to the county in coming years.
