(Yuba-Sutter, CA) – PG&E has begun a six month project to modernize a section of natural gas transmission pipelines, running from east Wheatland to west Grass Valley, that will enable in-line inspections by robot.

In preparation, crews are excavating portions of the 27 mile pipeline at 13 locations to straighten the angles, allowing the inspecting robot to travel smoothly, without getting caught up in corners. The majority of excavations are taking place along Spenceville Road, between Indian Springs Road & HWY 20 in Penn Valley.
