Pipeline Map Project and Web Access Demonstration
The UTC maintains maps which show the routes of hazardous liquid pipelines and high-pressure natural gas pipelines (>250 psig) to meet the needs of first responders and local governments.
The UTC offers free map atlases by county to interested fire departments, emergency management agencies and local governments upon request (e-mail: pipelinesafety@utc.wa.gov
There are pipelines in 27 counties in Washington State
Also you can visit the National Pipeline Mapping System to view transmission pipelines in your county at https://www.npms.phmsa.dot.gov
These maps must NOT be used to determine where you can dig safely.
Under state law, you MUST call1-800-424-5555 or 811
two business days before you do any digging, even on your own property.
This timely call will allow utility companies to clearly mark the ground under which their facilities are located, BEFORE YOU DIG. |
Not all pipelines are shown on these maps.
These maps DO NOT show ANY underground power lines, telephone lines, cable lines or water lines.
They DO NOT show ANY underground facilities going to a home or building.
Moreover, the location of a pipeline can change, and these maps may not reflect that location change. If you choose to use these maps, you do so entirely at your own risk.
If you're using Internet Explorer 6, you should look at this first.
