NATURAL GAS PIPELINE EXPANSION TO GO THROUGH SEVERAL LOCAL COUNTIES
In this mention
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has approved a 122-mile natural gas pipeline expansion by Enbridge in East Tennessee, extending from Smith County to TVA's Kingston power plant in Roane County. The Southern Alliance for Clean Energy opposes the project, arguing it poses risks to high-consequence areas and locks Tennessee into fossil fuels rather than cleaner alternatives. Construction is scheduled to begin in Fall 2025 and be completed by Fall 2026.
