Philadelphia Energy Solutions Applauds Recommendation to Reject Laurel Pipeline Reversal
Philadelphia Energy Solutions (“PES”) today issued the following
statement regarding a Recommended Decision by a Pennsylvania Public
Utility Commission (PUC) administrative law judge that the full
commission reject a proposal by Buckeye Partners to reverse the flow of
the Laurel Pipeline. The recommendation now goes to the full PUC for
consideration.
“We applaud the decision made by Administrative Law Judge Eranda Vero
recommending the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) deny
Buckeye Partner’s application for the reversal of the Laurel Pipeline.
Since 1957, the Laurel Pipeline’s east-to-west flow has ensured
dependable, safe and low-cost pipeline access to refined fuel products
for Western Pennsylvania. Today’s recommendation is a step in the right
direction for Pennsylvania consumers, who will continue to benefit from
lower prices at the pump. We urge the PUC to put Pennsylvania first by
upholding today’s recommendation and rule in favor of Pennsylvania
consumers, communities and businesses.”
