FERC Stuck in Slow Mo – Late Approving PA to OH Risberg Project

Seems to us like the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) continues to drag its feet on Marcellus/Utica pipeline projects. Yes, our projects get approved, eventually--but not on the schedule FERC itself establishes. Case in point: RH energytrans' Risberg Line--a 60-mile, $86 million pipeline from Crawford County, PA through Erie County and into Ashtabula County, OH. According to FERC's own schedule, an OK for the project was due no later than Sept. 27 (see 60-Mile Pipeline from NW PA to NE OH Gets Favorable FERC Review). Didn't happen. RH energytrans is being diplomatic, saying, "It may take a little longer than we might hope."
