Dates set for pipeline project passing through county

Enbridge Energy Company, Inc., has selected its contractors and has now released anticipated start dates for construction of the Flanagan South Pipeline Project. The project is an approximately 600-mile, 36-inch diameter new interstate crude oil petroleum pipeline, beginning in Pontiac, Ill., and terminating in Cushing, Okla.

The project, slated to begin Aug. 7 about 3.75 miles north of Mound City, which Enbridge calls its 'spread four location," will run a short distance near Highway 3 and Yellowstone Road in northwest Bourbon County. That section of the project will continue through to Cushing, Okla., according to an Enbridge press release.
