We know you’re just dying to know the outcome of whether or not the cute, little candy darter is safe if the big, evil Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) finishes building across several 136 streams in Virginia and West Virginia. Relax. The candy darter is safe. So says the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) in a memo sent to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on Tuesday. The USFWS memo answers a request by FERC to weigh in on several threatened and endangered species (plants and animals). The bottom line from USFWS is that the final bits of work to be done on the 94% complete MVP will not present a problem for threatened and endangered species.
