The Atlantic Coast Pipeline announced Friday it has signed Project Labor Agreements with four of the nation’s leading building and construction trade unions.
The ACP is a controversial $5 billion, 600-mile natural gas project slated to run from West Virginia to North Carolina through Virginia. The pipeline would go through a 27-mile stretch in Nelson County.
“The agreements reaffirm the Atlantic Coast Pipeline project’s commitment to hiring skilled union workers for the pipeline’s construction,” said a news release issued Friday by Dominion Energy, the lead partner of the project.
