Abstract
The Alaska LNG Project team will submit details on the Cook Inlet pipeline crossing in September 2019. The current plan is to trench and bury the 42-inch diameter pipe nearshore and to lay it on the seafloor in between coated with concrete. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is requesting answers to detailed questions on this proposed crossing before it releases its final environmental impact statement. The Alaska Gasline Development Corporation released information trench crossings at water crossings and about trenchless river crossings for some rivers using direct microtunneling at permafrost locations (Middle Fork Koyukuk, Yukon, Tanana, and Deshka). Moreover, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has noted concerns with migratory birds. Also, the FERC docket this month contains a filing submitted by 18 property owners at Boulder Point concerned about the pipeline location in Nikiski and the dam at Suneva Lake.
