from a nearby well, separates the gas phase for delivery to
internal and external customers, and stores the materials in five
atmospheric storage tanks until third-party custody transfer can
take place. There is equipment in place to provide heat tracing
during the coldest months of the year. The Farnsworth
production tank battery will consist of four 21,000-gallon storage
tanks, one 12,600-gallon storage tank, two heater-treater devices,
