The Mountain Valley Pipeline is set up to connect the West Virginia natural gas production fields to the Transco station in Chatham with 301 miles of pipe — including 20 miles in Pittsylvania County.
The project is one step closer to being built after the draft environmental impact study was published by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Thursday.
That report was a joint venture that included the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service, Army Corps of Engineers, Environmental Protection Agency, Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Land Management, Department of Transportation, West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection and West Virginia Division of Natural Resources.
