Western Gateway Pipeline Heads to Arizona

A massive $5 billion Western Gateway Pipeline is poised to snake through southern Arizona, delivering 200,000 barrels of fuel daily — half aimed at Arizona — to offset California refinery shutdowns that’ve spiked local gas prices. But Pima County officials, including Supervisor Jennifer Allen, are fiercely opposed, calling the project a passing-through route that doesn’t benefit locals and threatens protected lands. Pipeline giants Phillips 66 and Kinder Morgan vow safety and thorough permitting, promising supply stability — but skeptics remain wary as routes are still undecided and community concerns mount.
