The Hill: Ranking members on the House and Senate energy committees sent a joint letter to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) this week asking to be updated on the potential environmental safety risks related to construction of the Rover Pipeline in Ohio.
It is the second time that the commission has raised concerns about the pipeline's construction techniques, according to a Senate energy committee press release.
The letter, dated Wednesday, was sent in response to news that in January, FERC put a halt to the use of horizontal directional drilling techniques near the Tuscarawas River by the pipeline's parent company Energy Transfer Partners.
