The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission will hold a public meeting Wednesday to accept comments and review the environmental impacts of a $53 million natural gas pipeline project proposal in Washington and Greene counties.

The project proposed by National Fuel Gas Supply Corp. would increase capacity of existing pipelines by 150 million cubic feet a day and enable the system to better carry natural gas from the quickly multiplying number of Marcellus shale deep wells in southwestern Pennsylvania.
