Enbridge outlines multi‑year gate‑station and feeder‑line upgrades across Utah
Summary
Enbridge staff presented a multi‑year capital plan that lists gate‑station replacements, feeder‑line upsizing and new stations across growing Utah communities from 2025–2029.
SALT LAKE CITY — Enbridge Gas Utah presented a multi‑year capital program that company staff said prioritizes gate‑station replacements, feeder‑line upsizing, and new regulator stations to support growth in several Utah communities.
Jason McGee, Enbridge Gas Utah, led the project rundown, describing near‑term work on stations including M G 3 in Monticello, feeder line 71 AC mitigation and the Wasatch 441 replacement near Jordan River/I‑215, as well as a new full‑size station to serve Black Desert/Ivan and feeder‑line reinforcement in West Jordan. McGee said the company bought property adjacent to the Monticello site and will “remodel that whole station” to improve odorant capacity and overall reliability.
The nut graf: The presentation lists numerous localized station upgrades and feeder‑line replacement projects staged from 2025 through 2029, reflecting network reinforcement to meet residential growth, industrial demand and planned power‑plant connections.
McGee provided a timeline of projects through 2029. Highlights in the 2025–2026 window include feeder‑line loop and feeder‑line 36 reinforcement, a Syracuse feeder‑line completion and station, and initial Heber Valley reinforcements. Projects through 2027–2029 target growth areas such as South Hurricane, inland‑port/Northwest Quadrant build‑out, South St. George extensions, and continued Heber Valley phases. He described coordination with developers to secure property for some stations.
Commissioners asked clarifying questions about looping vs. upsizing (feeder‑line 36 will be upsized from 6‑inch to 12‑inch, not looped) and about property acquisition for SL‑114 downtown station; McGee said the firm is either seeking relocation property or will work with the existing footprint if space cannot be found.
Ending: McGee said the program mixes replacement of aging infrastructure and targeted reinforcement in response to growth; many projects are contingent on property acquisition and city coordination and will proceed as permits and right‑of‑way allow.
