Federal regulators approve major East Coast pipelines
Source: The Hill
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission gave the green light on Friday evening to the construction of two major natural gas pipelines to be built on the East Coast, in a move that was praised by business leaders and condemned by environmentalists.
The Mountain Valley Pipeline, which will cost $3.5 billion, would span 300 miles from the northern portion of West Virginia all the way to Danville, Va.
The Atlantic Coast Pipeline, which will amount to $5 billion, will stretch 600 miles from north-central West Virginia, through Virginia, and through eastern North Carolina.
Business advocates say the pipelines will lower energy costs and jumpstart economic development, however its opponents warn the pipelines will interfere with property rights and have a negatives impact on the environment.

I expect many GOP "properties" will be impacted... (or will they?
