Residents of Diamond Valley are being advised that they may hear some loud noises this week until Thursday, July 25th.
TC Energy will be performing routine pipeline infrastructure maintenance near Diamond Valley this week, and anyone who lives in the area may hear a loud sustained noise, otherwise known as a "blowdown."
Crews will be releasing natural gas from the system so they can complete their work on the depressurized facilities, which will create that loud roaring noise.
The noise is comparable to an airplane engine, and may last from a few minutes to multiple hours, but it is estimated that the duration for this blowdown is around 20 minutes.
TC Energy recognizes that this work and the noise it produces can be inconvenient, so they will do everything they can to minimize the effects on those in the area, including giving those close to the worksite direct notification of the work being done, before the work being begins.
The work began on July 16th, and will run until Thursday, July 25, and will happen between 9 a.m. and 11 p.m.
