FERC Issues Final EIS to Restore Atlantic Coast Pipeline ROWs
Atlantic Coast Pipeline (ACP) had laid 31 miles of pipeline and had cut trees for 222 miles along the 600-mile route before Dominion Energy, the builder, decided in 2020 it no longer wants to be in the interstate pipeline business, canceling ACP (see Dominion Cancels Atlantic Coast Pipe, Sells Pipe Biz for $9.7B). In January 2021, Dominion filed a plan with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to clean up and “undo” the project (see Dominion Files Plan with FERC to “Undo” Atlantic Coast Pipe Work). On Dec. 17 FERC staffers issued a final environmental impact statement (EIS) that will allow Dominion to finish tidying up the pipeline right-of-way.
