That fire is at least 15,000 acres now. It has tripled in size. The winds were really strong the first day. Weird that the guy who started the fire lived a mile away from the duck commander warehouse in West Monroe.

I didn't realize you could get arrested for having weed on Federal land. Weed is legal in AZ but I guess that doesn't make it legal on Federal property. Good to know.

Today marks the official start of the Monsoon season here in AZ, I hope it rains like it did in the late 60's early 70's. That was amazing. Tempe town lake is a gonner if that happens.

I love it when the rains come.

I guess they call it the (Pipeline fire) because it's near the Transwestern pipeline. I can still see the scar on the land near my house where they laid that huge pipeline. That was a huge project. The Obama administration didn't seem to have a problem with that pipeline.

Following a December 2004 open season, Transwestern executed precedent agreements for firm service with five prospective customers — Salt River, Arizona Public Service Co., Southwest Gas Corp., UNS Gas Inc. and Gila River Power LP — representing 74% of the capacity of the proposed Phoenix Lateral and 99% of the capacity of the proposed San Juan Loops A and B.

Transwestern, a Southern Union company subsidiary, extends 2,400 miles from the San Juan, Anadarko and Permian basins to the California border.

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission staff and a number of cooperating agencies had given the proposed expansion the final environmental go-ahead in September (see NGI, Sept. 24).
