PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE<br />

NEW XCEL ENERGY NATURAL GAS<br />

PROJECT COMING TO GV<br />

Residents in the area of Xcel Energy’s new proposed<br />

Southeast Metro Natural Gas Project are being notified of a<br />

public open house on Tuesday, <strong>November</strong> 19 from<br />

5:30-7:30 p.m. at the DoubleTree by Hilton Denver Tech<br />

Center, 7801 E. Orchard Road in the Mandarin Marquis<br />

and Granita Lime rooms on the second floor.<br />

Attendees of the open house will learn more about Xcel<br />

Energy’s proposal to install, operate and maintain<br />

approximately five miles of new 20-inch-diameter steel<br />

natural gas pipe along and through the western side of<br />

Cherry Creek State Park. This project will allow Xcel Energy<br />

to continue providing the safe, reliable natural gas service its<br />

customers expect.<br />

The project begins near the intersection of South Yosemite<br />

Avenue and East Hampden Avenue in Denver and ends near<br />

the intersection of East Caley Avenue and South Troy Circle<br />

in Centennial. Project work will occur in parts of Greenwood<br />

Village, unincorporated Arapahoe County, Aurora,<br />

Centennial, Cherry Creek State Park and Denver.<br />

Construction could start as soon as summer 2020 and could<br />

be complete by the end of 2021. Project planning and route<br />

selection began in fall 2018 and is currently in the permitting<br />

phase. Project schedules are subject to change.<br />

The open house will have Xcel Energy staff on hand to<br />

answer questions. The event will feature informational boards<br />

covering route selection, purpose, need, schedule,<br />

construction impacts, safety, and public outreach. There also<br />

will be detailed maps showing those residential areas<br />

impacted by the project.<br />

If you are unable to attend the open house, the event<br />

materials will be available on the project’s website on<br />

<strong>November</strong> 21 at XcelEnergySEMetroGasProject.com. You<br />

also can sign up to receive periodic project status emails on<br />

the website. Questions can be emailed to<br />

info@XcelEnergySEMetroGasProject.com or left on the<br />

project information line at 866-267-7419. Xcel Energy will<br />

reply by the next business day. GV<br />
