A company that owns a pipeline that stretches from Butler County to Washington County has been convicted on charges related to their conduct during construction.
According to Attorney General Josh Shapiro, Energy Transfer, which owns the Revolution Pipeline, pleaded no-contest to “repeatedly ignored environmental protocols and custom plans.”
During the case, prosecutors found that the construction of the pipeline led to two landslides, which led to an explosion that caused damage to homes, cars, and barns.
As part of the agreement, Energy Transfer is setting aside funds that will go toward homeowners impacted during the construction of the pipelines.
