SUMMARY:Smart Growth Summit: Economic Impact of Natural Gas on Triangle East Region
DESCRIPTION:Smart Growth Summit\nMarch 27\, 2020 | 2PM\n\n \n\nEconomic Impact of Natural Gas on Triangle East Region\n The Atlantic Coast Pipeline is a critical infrastructure project that will strengthen the economic vitality\, environmental health and energy security of the Mid-Atlantic region.\n\n\n\nPublic utilities in Virginia and North Carolina need new\, lower-cost supplies of natural gas to generate cleaner electricity\, heat the homes of a growing population and power new industries like manufacturing.
