Biden Administration Bucks Eco Groups Again, Advances Massive Gas Pipeline

Mountain Valley Pipeline constructionThe Biden administration issued a critical approval Thursday evening for a 303½-mile West Virginia-to-Virginia natural gas pipeline project that environmental groups argued would have disastrous impacts.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) published a record of decision approving a 30-year right-of-way permit and a temporary use permit for the Mountain Valley Pipeline, allowing the project to proceed on a 3½-mile stretch of the Jefferson National Forest along the West Virginia-Virginia border. [emphasis, links added]

In a separate decision earlier this week, the U.S. Forest Service said the pipeline could be constructed in the federal forest.

“The Bureau of Land Management issued a record of decision for the Mountain Valley Pipeline,” BLM spokesperson Kristen Peters said in a statement. “The BLM is moving forward with the next step, processing the revised right-of-way application for the project.”

Mitchell Leverette, director of BLM’s Eastern States region, and Deputy Interior Secretary Tommy Beaudreau both signed the record of the decision Thursday.

The determination clears the way to finish the billion-dollar project that is 94% complete but has been mired in a lengthy permitting process for years.

Overall, the pipeline would transport about two billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from West Virginia to consumers in the Mid- and South Atlantic.

Before construction can be completed, the project must receive authorization from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which manages a 60-foot stretch of a West Virginia trail the pipeline would need to cross.

And a federal court struck down a permit issued by the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection in April, requiring the agency to issue a revised permit.

In addition, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s recent permitting decision in favor of the pipeline is being challenged in federal court.

Environmental groups are also poised to challenge the BLM and Forest Service permits, potentially delaying construction further. …

The project has received backing from Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm and lawmakers including Democratic West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin.

The West Virginia senator has argued it would create 2,500 construction jobs, $40 million in new tax revenue for his home state, $10 million in new tax revenue for Virginia, and up to $250 million in royalties for West Virginia landowners. …

Mountain Valley Pipeline operator Equitrans announced last year it expected the pipeline to go into service during the second half of 2023. Federal regulators gave the company until 2026 to complete the project.

30-Plus Signs That The Climate Scam Is Collapsing

    The “current occupant of the White House” has to butter up Senator Joe Manchin. The Senator has said he will block any and all nominees sent to the senate for confirmation for head of the Dept. of Energy. Basically pure blackmail, and I love it.

      Graham, I thought this piepline was promised to Machin by Biden for his vote to pass the IRA legislation. After that went through, did Biden renege on the agreement?

      So now, it seems, Manchin has got back at Biden and good on him… !!!

      Reading this article, it amazes me to see how many approvals for a pipeline project is required. Getting something sensible (like this) done seems almost impossible.

      • Graham McDonald says:
        2 years ago

        Biden ‘sat on it’, till he absolutely had to have Joe M.’s vote. Seems that a normal deal’ with a Biden is, “Heads I win, Tails you lose”.

        The business with the Debt Ceiling? Welfare clients should work? Heck yes. If they are completely useless, they should be placed in a school. Locate it on an unused army base. Army cooks. A bunk and three squares of army chow a day, “Till you learn enough to support yourself”.

        For more on the subject: “Who’s That Lady In The President’s Bed”, by B. K. Ripley. Copyright 1972. It’s an eye-opener. That’s where I cribbed the ‘army chow’ idea.

      Sorry – to head the EPA, not DoE.

      …to oppose every one of President Joe Biden’s nominees for the EPA “until they halt their government overreach.” But it looks as if he’s getting his gas pipeline. Will that make a difference?

    Biden suddenly wanting to score brownie points to say he cares about energy costs etc.??? LOL Too late FJB!
