    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has prepared a final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Ridgeline Expansion Project, proposed by East Tennessee Natural Gas, LLC. This project involves constructing and operating a 122.2-mile natural gas pipeline in Tennessee to provide increased gas transportation capacity. Despite some potential environmental impacts, these are expected to be minimized with mitigation measures. The EIS is not a decision document but provides an analysis for the Commission’s review before making any final decisions.

    Simple Explanation

    The government looked at plans to build a long gas pipe in Tennessee, checked how it might affect the environment, and said they're trying to make sure it doesn't hurt nature too much. Now, they're waiting before making any big decisions about it.
