A. Background
The Arkansas Highway and
Transportation Department is replacing
an unsafe wooden bridge on County
Road 51, Jackson County, Arkansas. The
proposed right-of-way will require
realignment of a 762-foot section of a 4inch natural gas pipeline that runs
beneath the eastern edge of the wooden
bridge on County Road 51. To install the
pipeline, CPE will utilize horizontal
directional drilling to cross a section of
the Refuge and the Cache River. The
entry and exit pits will be located in the
gravel roadbed; the northern pit will be
50 feet from the northern end of the
bridge and the southern pit will be 120
feet from the southern end of the bridge.
The new alignment will run along the
east side of the new bridge and 24 feet
from the centerline of the existing road.
The new pipeline right-of-way will run
4 feet below the riverbed, and across a
strip of land lying in Jackson County, in
the State of Arkansas.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
We have received a right-of-way
(ROW) permit application from Texas
Gas to install a 36-inch-diameter natural
gas pipeline under lands within the
boundary of Hillside National Wildlife
Refuge in Holmes County, MS. The
proposed use is part of the Texas Gas
Fayetteville/Greenville Expansion
Project to construct, own, and operate
262.6 miles of 36-inch-diameter natural
gas pipeline and associated facilities in
the states of Arkansas and Mississippi.
The Greenville Lateral, in Mississippi,
consists of approximately 96.4 miles in
Washington, Sunflower, Humphries,
Holmes and Attala Counties. The
pipeline will carry natural gas supplies
from the Fayetteville Shale production
area in north central Arkansas to
consumer markets served by Texas Gas
and other interstate pipelines. The
pipeline is intended to provide
increased pipeline capacity from the
Fayetteville Shale production area.
Texas Gas proposes to use subsurface
Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD)
technology to cross the Refuge lands.
The HDD bore and installation of one
36-inch-diameter pipeline will take
place between 95 and 115 feet below the
surface of Refuge lands. The route will
follow an abandoned railroad right-ofway for an estimated 1,405 feet below
ground under the northern tip of the
Refuge. The entry and exit holes of the
HDD bore will be located approximately
1,000 feet outside the Refuge boundary.
Texas Gas proposes to cut a 3-foot-wide
path across the Refuge directly above
the pipe location. The path will be used
to hand-lay two electrical grid guide
wires for guidance of the underground
drill bit. A HDD drilling rig, set up
outside the Refuge, will be used to drill
