FM 1127 update 3:

Good morning,

I want to provide the most current information regarding the line leak at FM 1127. Would you please post the information below to your social channels so we can reach residents in the surrounding area? We have seen an incorrect number shared across several posts and want to make sure that [email protected] is available for residents and [email protected] is available for media inquiries.

Please attribute the statement to a ONEOK spokesperson.

Thank you for your help.

On June 12, there was a release on our pipeline outside of Shepherd, Texas, believed to be related to third-party excavation activity. Employees quickly isolated the affected segment and are working to safely remove product from the line.

FM 1127 is currently closed to traffic and is expected to remain closed through the weekend. Company and local officials have established an alternate route for access to remain open 24-hours with lighting and security personnel.

Residents who live in the neighborhoods down FM 1127 and are displaced overnight should send reimbursement receipts to [email protected].

We appreciate the quick response of emergency personnel and the patience of the community as we work to restore access. Safety is our top priority, and we are committed to protecting our employees, our communities, our assets and the environment.

The shelter will be closing, plans are in place to accommodate anyone displaced. Access through the private ranch road has been secured for the duration at this point. The bridge in the middle is not big enough to accommodate large vehicles. The current update from ONEOK is that it could be Sunday evening before the line is emptied and can be repaired. For information about this event ONEOK has provided this number 405-850-6433.
