A 10-inch (250 mm) diameter length of piping measuring 6.8 miles (10.9 km) would then extend to a proposed Metering and Regulation Station in Eden, Maryland, running alongside U.S. Route 13.

From there, a 9.7-mile (15.6 km) length of 8-inch (200 mm) diameter pipe would continue along Route 13 to Eastern Correctional Institution and a Mountaire Farms processing plant.

In December 2020, one of two wetlands licenses needed due to the fragile ecosystems traversed by the pipeline was granted unanimously by the Maryland Board of Public Works.

[8][9][10] The pipeline has received significant pushback from local organizations due to primarily environmental concerns, including the Chesapeake Climate Action Network (CCAN), Lower Shore Progressive Caucus, and Sierra Club.

[16][17] Other officials, including the Somerset County Development Commission Director and Salisbury Area Chamber of Commerce President, support the pipeline as well.
