New Mexico approved cultural-resource monitoring for Energy Transfer’s 17.8-mile Green Chile (绿辣椒) gas pipeline, intended to support Oracle’s planned data center.

New Mexico’s historic-preservation authorities approved a cultural-resource monitoring plan for Energy Transfer’s 17.8-mile Green Chile pipeline. The supplied message attributes the information to regulatory documents concerning protection of cultural resources during construction.

Michelle M. Ensey, identified in the report as an executive director in the historic-preservation division, communicated the approval in a Monday letter to the US Bureau of Land Management. The plan was described as approved and ready for implementation.

The natural-gas pipeline is intended to support power supply for Oracle’s planned large data center in New Mexico. The disclosed approval is specifically for cultural-resource monitoring; it does not establish completion of all pipeline permits, pipeline operation, or data-center energization, and no gas-throughput or generation-capacity figure is supplied.
