FRIDAY, JUNE ML, ,_ 1937. NEVADA CITY NUGGET RIO VISTA ADDS More natural gas California! for Norther Pany is about to inicrease its supply by tapping a new natural gas field near Rio Vista, Solano county. It has contracted for an average of ten million feet daily from this source to supplement the enonmous quantity it now draws from Kettleman Hills. Rio Vista gas—fuel of high heat content—will be distributed by the P. G. and E. in Solano, Yolo, Marin, Sonoma and Napa counties. To this end the company will construct 581% miles of. steel, highpressure transmission. pipelines as soon as authority is received from the Railroad Commission. The project will cost $904.000 and will be completed in about three months. A 12-inch main, 5% miles long, will ‘be laid from the Rio Vista field to a point south of Dixon and east of Fairfield and Suisun. From there a 10-inch line will evtend 26 miles to the Napa “Y”’ Junction on the state highway where it will connect with the existing pipeline that now brings Kettleman Hills gas across the Carquinez Bridge to the North Bay territory, 2 Another 10-inch line, 1414 miles long, will ‘connect the 12-inch. Rio Vista main with the 6-inch line’ already in sevice between Dixon and Davis. From Davis an 8-inch line will run :12 miles north to serve the recently built beet sugar refinery of the Spreckles Sugar Comipany, two miles north of Woodland. The new natural gas fields is in the Montezuma Hills, west of the Sacramento River and two -miles from the town of Rio Vista. The discovery well was completed on June 16, 1936, by the Amerada Petroleum Corporation, which now has six producing: wells in the area and plans to drill more. The Standard Oil Co. has brought in one well nearby. Development of the Rio Vista field and construction of the new network of mains will enable the P. G.’& RB. to meet steadily growing demands for natural gas, to extend service to communities not now served with ".

NEVA REBEKAH LODGE Neva Rebekah -lodge held a session Saturday evening at which time Mrs, Esther Tremaine, delegate from the lodge to grand lodge in Sacramento: on May 10, gave her report. She especially commented on degree work exemplified as of 1857 when. men gave the degree work for the women. Mrs. Mary Northey, Pierce, Mrs. Mrs. May Phillipia Chapman and or of the Tahoe national forest. Past experience has shown the value of tractors equipped with. the angledozer blades in the building of fire line but lack of fast transportation for such equipment was a handicap. The problem has been solved in Nels6n’s opinion by the assignment this week of a special line ‘building outfit to Nevada City where it will be stationed during the summer for
the use of the Tahoe, Plumas and EIdorado national forests. Two ‘35” Cletrac trailbuilders are mounted on a fifteen ton FWD semi-trailer designed so that the trailbuilders can be quickly loaded ad ‘unloaded by the operator. In Nelson’s opinion the burned area this season will be greatly reduced by the speed with which an effective fire line can be constructed with the above outfit. BEAUTY WEEK!
