Natural gas production and pipeline construction have increased dramatically since the pipeline policy was developed in 1999, as have concerns about the impacts of fracked gas development on climate and on the health, safety, and property rights of communities where pipelines are built. Gains in clean, renewable energy and energy efficiency have created more questions about the need for pipelines. Under-use of existing pipelines also weigh against claims of pipeline necessity.
