The approximately 35-mile-long Sunbury Pipeline is being designed to bring abundant natural gas supplies to growing natural gas markets in central Pennsylvania. Located entirely within north central Pennsylvania, it will begin in eastern Lycoming County and end near Shamokin Dam in Snyder County.
In addition to creating jobs and promoting economic growth in Pennsylvania, the pipeline will supply Pennsylvanians with a more affordable, efficient energy source. The project must satisfy a number of conditions before advancing, including approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
