The natural gas storage report from the EIA for the week ending April 23rd indicated that the amount of natural gas held in underground storage in the US rose by 15 billion cubic feet to 1,898 billion cubic feet by the end of the week, which left our gas supplies 302 billion cubic feet, or 13.7% below the 2,200 billion cubic feet that were in storage on April 23rd of last year, and 40 billion cubic feet, or 2.1% below the five-year average of 1,938 billion cubic feet of natural gas that have been in storage as of the 23rd of April in recent years..the 15 billion cubic feet that were added to US natural gas storage this week was more than the average forecast of a 9 billion cubic foot addition from an S&P Global Platts survey of analysts, but measured well below the average addition of 67 billion cubic feet of natural gas that have typically been injected into natural gas storage during the same week over the past 5 years, as well as well below the 66 billion cubic feet added to natur
Imperial County Board of Supervisors aims to clear the air over the Valley
IMPERIAL COUNTY, Calif. (KYMA, KECY) - The Imperial County Board of Supervisors aims to clear the air over its communities.
Earlier this week, in its capacity as the Air Pollution Control Board, approved a contract with Sonoma Technology to work on the New River Pollutant Monitoring Project in Calexico.
The budget for this project is about $335,000. The state of California will provide funding, so it won t cost the county anything. It will begin in August, and end in January of 2022.
Imperial County has some of the poorest air quality in the nation. Parts of the Valley, particularly those near the Salton Sea, have unusually high childhood asthma rates.
EL CENTRO â The Imperial County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday approved an agreement with an environmental consulting firm to monitor air contaminants near the New River in Calexico.
The supervisors, sitting as the Air Pollution Control Board, approved an agreement with Sonoma Technology Inc. (STI) to conduct the New River Pollutant Monitoring Project in an amount not to exceed $335,322.
Through this project, STI will collect high quality measurements of various air pollutants for a duration of six months at one location within Calexico in proximity to the New River. In addition, STI will perform data analysis, draft a final report, and present a summary of findings to the countyâs AB 617 Community Steering Committee (CSC).
