Michael,
We had talked a few months back on the Sandy Lake Rd. project in Coppell. I had another question I was hoping you
could answer. On the relocation plans, it appears a new line is crossing S. Coppell Rd. north of the old line. Was the old
line to the south abandoned or is it still active?
I have attached sheets for this location. The first sheet (sheet 7 of 60) shows the proposed line in red. The second sheet
(sheet 18 of 60) shows the line to the south in question highlighted.
I appreciate any help you can give me.
Thanks,
Andrew

Andrew,
I had previously reviewed this project for Atmos. After re-reviewing the design with Gary Woolsey, we do not see any
issue with separation mentioned below. Please be advised, that our calculations are based off a maximum 16,000 lb load
per axle and if there is any equipment that is heavier Atmos will have to be contacted to re-evaluate this crossing.
Also, the 4.76 ft separation is for the finally grade with the pavement. Please notify Atmos, if the construction grade falls
below 4 ft and/or a wheel load greater than 16,000 lb. Additional steps will have to be taken to insure the safety of the
gas line.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Michael Wisniewski

Gary,
Scott Gibson who you spoke with the other day forwarded me your contact information.
I am writing to you in regards to a different project – Sandy Lake Rd. in Coppell. Specifically I want to talk to you about
the separation from our top of pavement to the top of the 24” Atmos gas line crossing Sandy Lake from northwest to
southeast. I have attached our paving plan and profile sheet, cross sections showing our clearance from your line, and
our Level ‘A’ test holes that gave us the elevations of the 24” gas line.
We have kept our profile as high as we possibly can to achieve a 5’ separation from top of pavement to top of pipe.
Where your line intersects with our south curb line, there is a separation of 4.76’. This is the smallest separation. As your
line heads north, it drops in elevation so that the majority of your line under our pavement will be at least 5.00’ below
the top of pavement. By the time the gas line intersects with our north curb line, there is a separation of 7.82’. We are
unable to raise our profile any higher due to the fact we would prevent drainage from adjacent lots to reach the street,
effectively ponding water on private property.
Please let me know if this design will be acceptable with Atmos in regards to our paving profile. If you have any
questions or would like to discuss, please feel free to call or e-mail me.
Thanks,
Andrew
