Commonwealth Pipeline Project Suspended

This just in from the Associated Press. The planned 120-mile natural gas pipeline that would ship Marcellus gas from Lycoming County to Chester County has been suspended indefinitely. More from the AP:
The groups behind the project announced on their website that the project is being suspended. No reason is being given, but the group says it will provide updates later. The pipeline was supported by three major partners: Inergy Midstream LP, UGI Energy Services Inc., and WGL Holdings Inc. The developers had said they hoped to have the pipeline in service by 2015.
The company announced the suspension on their website.
