The Nexus Gas Transmission Pipeline Project includes the construction of an approximately 255-mile interstate natural gas transmission pipeline that will deliver 1.5 billion cubic feet per day of clean-burning natural gas from receipt points in eastern Ohio to existing pipeline system interconnects in southeastern Michigan.
The project is expected to be placed in service in 2018.
