central new mexico gas association wants to build new fueling station

The Estancia, New Mexico-based EMW Gas Association has issued a Request for Proposals for the building of a new compressed natural gas station.

The project will go up off Route 66 in nearby Moriarty and will include the construction of stainless steel compressed natural gas piping, a fueling canopy, concrete pavement and equipment pads, and station equipment integration.

Launched in 1964, the association is made up of the municipal boards of the town of Estancia, city of Moriarty, and village of Willard, with the initial construction of a nearly $1 million line providing natural gas to area residents, businesses, and farms.

The association currently serves more than 5,000 customers.
​
The RFP submission deadline for a project that will additionally include the construction of fence gates and ground-mounted signs is September 10.
