Pipeline Company Donates to Welding Program - 2/4/2010
MidContinent Express Pipeline donated steel pipe to the Louisiana Technical College Delta-Ouachita campus this week that will be used by welding classes at the college.
The pipe, with an estimated value of between $6,000 and $10,000, is from the 500-mile natural gas pipeline project crossing the northern section of the state.
