On May 23, 2024 Wild Virginia and allied groups held an online program to discuss the status of the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) and actions groups and individuals may take in the coming months to protect communities and the environment from further damage caused by the project.
In early May, the Mountain Valley Pipeline initially aimed for an official in-service date of June 1. This is far ahead of its original in service date of 2018... 6 years ago. However, due to a series of setbacks throughout the last month, the group has postponed this date once more, now targeting an early June launch. In a correspondence addressed to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, MVP officials attributed this delay to the extended construction period necessary to finalize welding activities on the project. They reported that fewer than ten welds remain outstanding for the mechanical completion of the pipeline. Concurrently, Mountain Valley is actively engaged in concluding all requisite testing, cleaning, drying procedures, and tie-ins essential for the pipeline's overall completion. We discuss this on the podcast.
