Enbridge Inc. operators of gas transmission pipeline more popularly known as Texas Eastern contacted the Adair County 911 Center requesting temporary evacuation assistance at a location near North Highway 55.  Multiple Agencies responded and assisted with evacuation of residents.  

Pipeline service stations in Plum Point and Weed Sparksville area are currently being “blown down”.  Expect a loud noise but no immediate threat in those areas.  

Enbridge is on the scene and coordinating efforts along with County Officials.  

 ​Update 21:25 4/24/2020 
The issue was determined to be a main water line leaking that crosses the gas pipeline, residents that were evacuated have been given the all clear to return to their homes. 

We want to thank Enbridge for their quick response.  

Thanks to Columbia - Adair County Fire Department, Adair Sheriff Office, Kentucky State Police, Columbia Gas Department, Judge Cowan, Adair County Water District and Adair 911 for assistance.  

At approximately 9-12AM Central on Saturday 4/24/2020 there will be another venting “blow down” sound at in the area of Plum Point as they refill the line.
