Great post gumtree...yes I do wonder what's going on. One of my main clients is a subsidiary of El Paso Energy(3rd largest natural gas company in the world) and I've been subcontracting to them for 12 years now, doing environmental documenting on their proposed pipeline right-of-ways. The work has been constant and steady and ironically this year we're actually working on a 700 mile line that does terminate in California, but there's no sudden "rush" on the job and it's been in the planning stages for 3 or 4 years now. So it doesn't appear to be a big "shortage" in terms of supplying natural gas fired power plants in California from what I can tell. And this company I subcontract to is in the interstate gas transport business and I've never heard a work about a rush to get natural gas to California. -- Eddie Pedantic Gasbag Discussion Group
