Texas Gas's Carnation Project Blooms: Public Comments on Mystery Pipeline Sought
Published Date: 12/8/2025
Notice
Summary
Texas Gas Transmission wants to build new gas facilities in Hamilton County, Ohio, and the government is asking the public to share their thoughts on how this might affect the environment. People have until January 2, 2026, to send in comments that could shape the project and its impact. This is a chance for locals and anyone interested to help decide if the project should move forward and how to protect the environment.
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 2 costs, 1 mixed.
Landowners Face Possible Eminent Domain
If you are a landowner in Ohio who receives this notice, Texas Gas may contact you to acquire an easement for the project; you are not required to agree. If the Commission approves the project and you do not reach an easement agreement, the pipeline company could initiate condemnation proceedings under the Natural Gas Act and a judge would determine compensation under state law.
Project Increases Gas Capacity for Southwest Ohio
Texas Gas proposes to increase interstate transmission capacity by about 170,000 dekatherms per day to help ensure a dependable natural gas supply for Southwest Ohio during periods of peak demand and constrained transportation capacity.
Construction Will Disturb 32.13 Acres
The project would disturb about 32.13 acres of land during construction: Texas Gas would use its full 29.54-acre Crosby-Harrison site and about 2.59 acres at the New Haven Regulators site. These construction activities could affect nearby land and local land use in Hamilton County, Ohio.
No Permanent Site Expansion at Compressor Station
Modifications at the Crosby-Harrison Compressor Station would not expand the existing fence line and would not require permanent use of additional lands; however, the New Haven Regulators would result in Texas Gas permanently maintaining an additional 0.29 acre for the modified regulators.
