The new interstate gas pipeline is being designed to extend from Williams Partners’ gathering system in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, to the Iroquois Gas Transmission and Tennessee Gas Pipeline systems in Schoharie County, New York.

Williams Partners will hold a 75% interest in the pipeline and will offer construction, operation and maintenance services, while Cabot will own the remaining 25%.

In anticipation of filing a certificate application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) in early 2013, Constitution Pipeline Company requested that the FERC initiate a pre-filing environmental review of the pipeline proposal.

The FERC pre-filing process is intended to solicit early input from citizens, governmental entities and other interested parties to identify and address issues with potential facility locations.
