NEXUS Pipe Replacing Section in Green, OH < 1 Yr After Startup

Last October NEXUS Pipeline, a $2.6 billion, 255-mile interstate pipeline that runs from Ohio to Michigan, received permission from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to begin partial operation (see Yes! NEXUS Pipeline OK’d by FERC to Begin Service). It wasn't long before the entire pipeline began to flow a full 1.5 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of Utica Shale gas to Michigan, and from there on to Sarnia, Ontario. Although the pipeline has been online for less than a year, Enbridge (the builder) is about to replace a half-mile segment of it in the City of Green--which has local residents hopping mad.
