Texas Eastern: Notice of planned compressor station activities in Accident, MD on April 9, 2024 (posted Monday, March 25 at 12 p.m. ET).

This notice is to inform interested parties that Enbridge’s Texas Eastern compressor station in Accident, MD will undergo routine maintenance activities on or around April 9, 2024.

During these planned maintenance activities, we estimate that our work may require the venting of natural gas in excess of 1,000,000 scf. These routine maintenance activities are necessary to ensure safe and reliable operations and pose no danger to the public. Our neighbors should not expect to notice much change from normal activity levels, however, the venting of air and/or natural gas to the atmosphere may be heard at above-ground facilities.

Enbridge’s land representatives will make best efforts to notify neighboring residents ahead of these activities for their awareness.

Enbridge will also notify community safety officials and first responders along the pipeline system of these upcoming activities in the event they receive any calls or questions.

Pipelines are the safest, most efficient and most reliable way to transport energy resources. Pipelines play a vital role in our everyday lives, and are essential to our quality of life and economy—moving the products necessary for transportation, heating and cooling our homes, producing our food supply and manufacturing consumer products.

Enbridge’s top priority is operating our pipeline network safely. Our pipelines meet or exceed rigorous regulatory standards, and we work diligently to protect our pipeline network, because it means our neighbors and employees are protected as well.

Should you have any questions about these planned maintenance activities, please contact our public awareness hotline at USpublicawareness@enbridge.com or call 1-888-293-7867.
