Small pipeline, large worries for some S. Carolina residents
Jefferson is one of several landowners protesting the pipeline because they are worried about its potential environmental effects. The proposed 14.5-mile-long (23-kilometer-long) gas line is small in contrast to projects like the recently canceled Atlantic Coast Pipeline, or even a 55-mile-long (88.5-kilometer-long) pipeline Dominion built recently in the state. The company cites new energy demand spurred by economic growth in eastern South Carolina as the impetus for the project. She points to the explosion of a Dominion gas line in Ohio and allegations over pollution involving coal ash in Virginia. Dominion held a community workshop in January at the townโs elementary school so residents could learn more about the proposed pipeline.
