Background

Dominion Carolina Gas Transmission requested permits to build a natural gas pipeline in Richland and Calhoun counties to transport natural gas to the International Paper Eastover facility to fuel its boilers. The proposed pipeline will be approximately 29 miles long to reach the facility.

The proposal was filed with Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) by Dominion Energy in 2015. According to U.S. Energy Information Administration, the construction of the pipeline was completed in November 2016 and began operating.
