What a beautiful Right of Way!
This well-defined and properly managed ROW helps ensure the safety of both the pipeline and the surrounding environment, as it allows for adequate separation between the pipeline and structures, other utilities, or activities that could pose a risk.

Check out Farwest's construction team installing an AC mitigation system in southern Utah. This project showcases our ability to handle challenging environments, with our team expertly navigating the rocky terrain. Using a large bulldozer to "rip" the ground and prepare a trench, followed by plowing a bare copper cable into the pre-ripped trench with a second tractor, we’re helping to ensure the pipeline is well-protected into the future.
AC mitigation is crucial for transmission pipelines. When pipelines are installed near high-voltage power lines, they can experience induced AC voltage, which poses serious safety risks and accelerates corrosion. By installing an AC mitigation system, these risks are reduced, enhancing the longevity and safety of the pipeline.
At Farwest, our skilled crews, equipped with the right tools, products and expertise, are capable of executing such complex installations efficiently.

💡In today's #TechnicalTuesday, WRc's Technical Manager Anthony Bond discusses ensuring accuracy in pipeline mapping—a crucial aspect of infrastructure projects big and small.
⛲WRc's innovative Sahara® Pipeline inspection system is revolutionising the process, enabling quick and precise location of buried pipelines.
⌛Recent surveys have slashed timeframes from months to as little as just one hour.

Here's the video from our Enbridge tour showcasing the operation of midstream pipelines. This working model transported two different streams of water (red and blue) with effective pig traps and provers. The video displays water from the red storage tank moving across the desk.

Did you know that underground utility asset owners record more unnecessary damages to their systems during the months following Safe Digging Month? Here is a reminder that carrying out safe digging practices is a year round responsibility for all.
Do you follow safe excavation practices at your workplace? You do if you always contact BC 1 Call before you dig, and then always follow buried infrastructure maps and safe digging instructions
provided by BC 1 Call’s members. Be sure to expose the underground lines and pipes to find the exact
location before using power tools.

At Black & Veatch, we will always recommend the #naturepositive 🌲 approach, including avoidance of protected #wetlands. However, underground linear projects such as transmission or sewer lines do not always have the space to go around sensitive areas. Our response? Let’s go under it!
Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) is a trench-free method for linear installations. One of its greatest environmental benefits is the ability to pass underneath sensitive areas such as wetlands without causing any ground disturbance; which means it will not be subject to Section 404 permitting. It is one of many #sustinable practices we utilize to solve infrastructure challenges.
Let’s talk about the innovative methods that could improve your project 🔊

In the quest to expand and strengthen Power Transmission systems.., wayleave/right of way and land acquisition for Transmission lines and substations is becoming increasingly challenging for various reasons...., some landowners fear that they will not be properly compensated, others fear construction damage to fences and gates..., crop loss around tower areas.., there is need for active and continous engagement with stakeholders and landowners for the better Environmental and Social Management Plans during Construction and Project Implementation ...
