U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District is soliciting comments regarding the proposed Black Hills Energy 35th & Superior Project in Lincoln, Nebraska. 

USACE Omaha District has determined that the Black Hills Energy 35th & Superior Project would entail an alteration to the Federal Project, and therefore requires permission under Section 408. 

The purpose of the proposed action is replacement of an existing 10" steel distribution, currently attached to the Superior Street bridge, with a 10" steel distribution pipeline via HDD method. 

The Requester's proposed project is comprised of the following elements: installing a new 10" steel gas line via horizontal directional drill (HDD) under Salt Creek and tie-ins to the existing gas distribution network. The existing pipeline crossing of Salt Creek, currently hung from the southern lane of the Superior Street bridge, would be purged, depressurized, cut, and removed from the bridge, with the cut ends of the remaining pipe grouted and abandoned in place. Additional work would include relocation of existing gas valves and regulator settings further from the west edge of Salt Creek, and installation of new 2" steel and plastic distribution gas lines via open trench and HDD construction to reconnect existing distribution network connections that would be left abandoned by this replacement on both sides of the levee.
