You may return to normal surface uses of the land with limited restrictions. However, any digging—even for fencing, vegetation or drainage—is prohibited without first contacting the local One-Call system (simply dial 811) or a Williams representative. No trees may be planted on the right of way. This is to (a) maintain a clear aerial surveillance of the right of way, and (b) prevent tree roots from damaging the pipeline coating. For more information on these restrictions, contact a Williams representative.
While the zip code you entered is outside the project area, the Atlantic Sunrise pipeline has an economic impact beyond the project area by providing consumers along the East Coast with access to reliable, cost-effective natural gas supply. In fact, access to reliable, cost-effective natural gas supply is powering an American manufacturing revolution while also lowering the energy costs of regular consumers who use this energy to cook meals and power their homes. This project, for instance, would provide enough natural gas to meet the daily needs of more than 7 million American homes. Estimates made by researchers at The Pennsylvania State University forecast the Atlantic Sunrise project to result in an estimated $1.6 billion increase economic activity in the project area during construction.
