Chapter 3. Affected Environment
Chapter3: Affected Environment CHAPTER 3. AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT 3.1. Introduction This section describes the affected environment as it currently exists. The discussion is organized by the following major resource topics: air quality and noise, geology and minerals, paleontological resources, soils, water resources, vegetation, wildlife, special status species, land use and transportation, visual and recreation resources, cultural resources, Native American concerns, socioeconomics and environmental justice, and hazardous and solid waste. 3.1.1. Project Area 3.1.1.1. Proposed Pipeline ROW The proposed common carrier pipeline would extend approximately 399 miles from the cluster of five refineries in southern Davis and northern Salt Lake counties, including Holly’s Woods Cross Refinery, to the Apex Industrial Park northeast of Las Vegas, Nevada, with two short lateral pipelines, one in Salt Lake County from the mainline to the Salt Lake City Airport, the other from the mainline to a terminal in the Cedar City, Utah area (see Exhibit 1.1-1). In Utah, the proposed main pipeline would originate in Davis County and cross Salt Lake, Tooele, Juab, Millard, Beaver, Iron, and Washington counties. In Nevada, the main pipeline would cross Lincoln County and terminate in Clark County. The main pipeline route would primarily cross BLM (203.79 miles) and private (125.56 miles) lands. It would cross lesser amounts of state (35.84 miles), U.S. Forest Service (17.78 miles), Moapa Band of Paiute Indian Reservation (14.57 miles), and U.S. Department of Defense (2.35 miles) lands for a total of 399.89 miles. The main pipeline route would cross approximately 2 miles of water.
