The Mountain Valley Pipeline project was proposed in 2019 as a 303-mile and 42-inch wide fracked methane gas pipeline stretching across West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina. Its construction has already led to over 300 water quality violations. Once completed it will only further destroy wildlife habitats and poison watersheds essential to the health of our residential areas and ecosystem. For nine years, local battles against the Mountain Valley Pipeline project have persisted in West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina as residents have practiced various forms of resistance – tree-sits, attending government meetings and monitoring construction sites, for example. Protests and complications have set the project back billions of dollars and several years, but the project is still estimated to be completed by 2024.
