Williams’ Rock Springs pipeline expansion will connect to the proposed Wildcat Point Generation Facility in Cecil County, Md.

We received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to construct an 11-mile pipeline lateral expansion to our Transco pipeline system. This expansion will provide natural gas to a planned electric power generating facility in Cecil County, Md.

The Rock Springs expansion project will provide natural gas to Old Dominion Electric Cooperative’s planned Wildcat Point Generation Facility. The new facility is expected to generate approximately 1,000 megawatts, enough to power 390,000 homes in the region.
