Construction, maintenance and integrity management projects are planned or in progress throughout Buckeye's pipeline system.
As one of the nation’s largest independent operators of petroleum pipelines, Buckeye Partners engages in numerous activities to maintain our excellent safety record and ensure the safety of the communities where we operate. Buckeye conducts routine inspection activities of our pipelines. As we conduct these maintenance activities, it is not unusual for our neighbors along the pipeline to hear unusual noises coming from the pipeline or see work crews performing activities along our right-of-way while the inspection is being conducted.
Below is a list of the scheduled maintenance activities.

Project: Woodhaven Ethanol Project
Location: Woodhaven, Michigan
Project Details
Construction of Buckeye's Rail Car Facility at its Woodhaven Truck Terminal and Tank Farm is nearing completion. The completed project will facilitate distribution of ethanol throughout the area. Ethanol is an oxygenation additive to help fuel burn more efficiently, thus reducing the amount of gasoline consumed. The project includes the construction of two rail sidings, which will permit simultaneous off-loading of 30 rail cars into Buckeye's storage system. The ethanol will be transported to local service stations and other facilities.
Project Duration
Buckeye's new Woodhaven Rail Facility will be ready for service on December 2.
