Ickes announced that the first of the veteran pipeline crews he counted on for record construction welded the first pipe this morning. The 631 mile northward leg from Longview Texas to Norris City will be completed this week but oil movement will start late January due to pumping equipment delays. When finished the system will have 25 pumping stations along its 1,388 mile route delivering 300,000 barrels daily to east coast terminals from Texas fields and refineries.
