Although the MVP is over 90% complete in terms of mileage, the project has faced numerous permitting challenges in federal court. As a result, construction repeatedly has been suspended. A separate pipeline, the proposed Southgate Project-still in early development-would extend the MVP into North Carolina. The MVP's permitting challenges, as well as recently enacted legislation to authorize its completion, are of continuing interest in Congress. Figure I.
