AECOM provided detailed engineering and design services for Kinder Morgan’s new 215 mile, 12-inch mixed-product pipeline constructed from Harrison County, Ohio and interconnected with Kinder Morgan’s Cochin pipeline near Riga, Michigan. The pipeline interconnects include three meter stations across the pipeline route.
The project presented many unique challenges, including multiple new pipelines in design or construction phase in adjacent corridors and two districts of USACE jurisdiction. In addition, several ODNR-identified endangered species along the route had to be contended with, 1,150 unique landowners had to be contacted, and approximately 5 miles of Karst terrain was included along the pipeline route.
