Notable for being the safest city in the Unites States, El Paso is also a vital part to one of the largest borderplex metropolitan economies in the world as the focal point of more than $85 billion dollars in annual trade between the United States and Mexico.

  • Western Refining Southwest, Inc.; Western Refining Pipeline Company
    Western Refining Southwest, Inc.; Western Refining Pipeline Company v. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 636 F.3d 719 (5th Cir. 2011) In this case, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirmed a Commission ruling that the dispute before the Commission was not jurisdictional under the Interstate Commerce Act because it involved a private lease agreement between Western Refining Southwest, Inc., Western Refining Pipeline Company (jointly Western), as lessee of pipeline capacity, and Enterprise Crude Pipeline, LLC (Enterprise) formerly known as TEPPCO Crude Pipeline, LLC., as lessor. The dispute did not arise from oil pipeline transportation. Rather, the dispute concerned, among other things, Western's failure to notify Enterprise in accordance with the lease that it would use the leased capacity the following month. That failure led Enterprise to dump crude oil line-fill that belonged to Western into a storage tank and to use the pipeline capacity itself by reversing the ordinary flow. Western complained to the Commission about the reversal of flow and apparent loss of line-fill. As noted above, the Commission denied the complaint as non-jurisdictional, and in the instant case the Fifth Circuit affirmed. Western Refining Southwest, Inc. v. F.E.R.C., 636 F.3d 719 (2011) Util.

    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT Farmington District Farmington Field Office 6251 N College Blvd., Ste. A Farmington, NM 87402 DECISION RECORD for the Western Refining Lybrook West Pipeline Project NEPA No. DOI-BLM-NM-F010-2015-0099-EA I. Decision I have decided to select Alternative B for implementation as described in the September 2015 Western Refining West Lybrook Pipeline project. Based on my review of the Environmental Assessment (EA) and project record, I have concluded the Alternative B was analyzed in sufficient detail to allow me to make an informed decision. I have selected this alternative because the proposed treatments will provide Western Refining reasonable access across public lands to construct, operate, and terminate the West Lybrook pipeline project. II. Conformance and Compliance The proposed action is in conformance with the September 2003 BLM-FFO Resource Management Plan (RMP), with Record of Decision (ROD; BLM 2003b) as updated in December 2003. Pursuant to 40 CFR 1508.28 and 1502.21, this site-specific Environmental Assessment (EA) tiers into and incorporates by reference the information and analysis contained in the BLM- FFO Proposed Resource Management Plan/Final Environmental Impact Statement (PRMP/FEIS; BLM 2003a). The RMP was approved by the September 29, 2003 ROD (BLM 2003b), and updated in December 2003. Specifically, the proposed action supports the following BLM policy: It is the policy of the BLM to make mineral resources available for disposal and to encourage development of mineral resources to meet national, regional, and local needs, consistent with national objectives of an adequate supply of minerals at reasonable market prices.
