    I wonder is the same kind of work they are doing on Josephine? Would love to have natural gas instead of propane.

    I wonder if that is part of the same line they are putting in on Ranch Road.

    yes to all those. it's a 39 mile, 36 inch, 750psi pipeline that starts at the corner of guy rd/70, goes east down guy road eventually angling off in the woods behind the hospital, then you can see it pop out of the woods at 42/70 bypass, go under 42, and parallel 70 bypass on the westbound side all the way down to where 70 business crosses 70 bypass between clayton and smithfield. it goes through the woods for a while, winds up crossing buffalo road and running parallel to booker dairy road (about 500 feet off booker dairy, on the selma side of the road across from triple S), then i lost track, but it ultimately goes to goldsboro i believe.

    but it's meant to serve a local distributing station in goldsboro, so not likely to have anything tapped off of it. don't look for gas to suddenly be in your neighborhood just because you're near it.

    DH says that it's just a feeder pipeline.

    It means that you will not be able to hook into to it because it's the main distribution line and needs to go to the distribution center first and from there it get's distributed/sold to different city's and counties.
