Ohio Supreme Court rejects effort to keep gas pipeline from going through land in Lucas County.

The Ohio Supreme Court has rejected an effort to keep a natural gas pipeline from going through land in Lucas County. The court heard an appeal from an Ohio Power Siting Board decision, in which the board granted a request to construct 3.7 miles of a proposed Ford Street Pipeline Project in Maumee, considered a “major utility facility,” using “a combination of private easements and public-road rights-of-way,” according to court documents.
