Philadelphia Energy Solutions Applauds Recommendation to Reject Laurel Pipeline Reversal

PHILADELPHIA

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.”
