| Project Detail |
Purpose and Description
Dominion Energy Transmission, Inc. (DETI) has
proposed the Sweden Valley Project to help meet
growing demand for natural gas to serve Midwest
markets.
The project would move natural gas from northern
Pennsylvania for delivery in Ohio.
Total cost of the project is about $48 million. The project
would provide 120,000 dekatherms per day of firm
transportation service, which would supply enough
natural gas for a single winter day to about 110,000
households. It would include modifications at an
existing compressor station, new metering and
regulation facilities, as well as a 1.7-mile interconnect
and 3.2 miles of parallel pipe to DETI’s existing natural
gas transmission system. The project is expected to be
in-service in late 2019.
Dominion Energy filed an application in January 2018
for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC), the agency responsible for reviewing and
authorizing interstate natural gas transmission projects.
The FERC will conduct a full review of the project in
compliance with two federal statutes, the Natural Gas
Act and National Environmental Policy Act.
