Keeping an eye on fuel concerns in Las Vegas
Wildfires in the Los Angeles area aren't just causing destruction in California; they're now affecting us here in the valley.
On Wednesday, the CALNEV Pipeline, a key fuel supply line responsible for 95% of Clark County's fuel needs, was shut down, sparking concerns about our local fuel supply.
The Kinder Morgan Pipeline was shut down Wednesday due to power outages caused by the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles.
On Thursday, Clark County warned residents about potential impacts to the fuel supply serving Southern Nevada. Around 9 p.m., the county posted on social media that a temporary solution had been implemented to restore power to the pipeline. They expect fuel to begin flowing into the valley within the next 12 to 24 hours.
However, this morning, ABC News reported that the current plan involves using ground trucks to take fuel to Las Vegas. This option, they say, won't be sufficient to meet the county's demand.
However, as of 8:05 a.m. on Friday, the SFPP West and CALNEV lines have returned to service, according to Kinder Morgan.
As we continue to gather more information, the city is advising residents to limit heavy driving while the pipeline remains disrupted.
