Three underground petroleum pipelines exist in the GLIS. The 14-inch Olympic pipeline originates from Puget Sound area oil refineries and terminates at bulk fuel terminals in Linnton and the GLIS. The Olympic pipeline is a primary supplier of gasoline, diesel and aviation fuel for the Portland metropolitan area and moves the equivalent of 1,800 tanker trucks of fuel per day between the Seattle and Portland areas. The 8-inch Kinder Morgan pipeline originates in the GLIS and supplies petroleum products to the Eugene area. An additional pipeline runs from the GLIS to Portland International Airport, supplying it with aviation fuel. These pipelines are examples of major private investments in industrial infrastructure within the GLIS that serve the regional economy.
Portland's main airport on Swan Island was only open a few years before it became obvious that the site offered little expansion room. The year after this 1935 photo, land was purchased along the Columbia River for a new airport.
