SPRING VALLEY – —Colorado Mountain College has been given until the end of the day tomorrow, May 4, to decide between two proposed on-campus sites for a SourceGas compressor station.
That is the deadline set by SourceGas, a natural-gas distribution company that already holds a 20-year lease on a five-acre, compressor-station site on the campus, adjacent to a natural gas pipeline built in 1994.
The lease was signed by the company and CMC President Stan Jensen last year.
The company had planned to start construction this month on the compressor station’s four buildings, finishing by November 2012, according to documents on file with Garfield County.
The compressor station is needed, company officials say, to boost the pressure of gas traveling between storage facilities in Rifle and customers in the Roaring Fork and Eagle River valleys.
