$D North Carolina's Department of Environmental Quality gives the Atlantic Coast Pipeline permission to move forward, contingent on certain conditions for testing and monitoring.

Projects that will impact wetlands, buffers or waterways must obtain the 401 water quality certification, which ACP had first applied for in May; the state went back to the company five times to request additional information.

The project's lead developer is Dominion Energy (D -1.6%), with Duke Energy (DUK -0.3%) and Southern Co. (SO -1.1%) as key partners; the targeted in-service date is H2 2019.
