The 100-foot-wide pipeline ROW has two 8-inch crude oil pipelines that cross Platte County, Wyoming. The soil is composed of mostly sandy material. Wind erosion was blowing sand and removing cover from the pipelines, leaving the pipelines with shallow cover.
The site is a crude oil gathering facility in Weld County, Colorado within the DJ Basin. The soil is composed of mostly sandy material. Wind erosion was blowing sand all over the unit and sloughing off the hills. The proposed solution was to armor the embankment to minimize sand erosion due to wind.
