Residents of Las Vegas have been advised not to engage in panic buying of fuel following the temporary shutdown of two major pipelines due to wildfires in California. The pipelines, operated by Kinder Morgan Inc., were closed in response to the fires, impacting the delivery of gasoline and diesel to Nevada and other parts of the western United States.
The affected pipelines, SFPP West and CALNEV systems, have been non-operational since Wednesday. However, a solution has been identified to power the line into southern Nevada, with fuel expected to resume flowing on Friday, according to Clark County officials.
