The Traverse City Alpena Reinforcement Project (TCARP) aimed to enhance the reliability of the natural gas system infrastructure in Michigan's Grand Traverse, Benzie, and Leelanau counties. Phase 1, completed in January 2021, involved the installation of pipelines from Paradise Township to Garfield Township. Phase 2, finished in January 2022, extended from Blair Township to Inland Township in Benzie County. This extensive project encompassed the construction of more than 22 miles of new pipelines, spanning six local townships. Its primary goal was to establish redundancy, safeguarding against potentially catastrophic disruptions in the natural gas supply to the region.
