Pipelines Update -- Natural Gas -- The "Marcellus" Effect

Earlier today, RBN Energy: natural gas pipeline operators rethinking entire national system; the Marcellus effect

Now this afternoon, a similar story at Reuters: a surge in pipelines in the northeast.

This is the Reuters list of pipeline projects expected to be online at the end of 2012 and in 2013:
Pipeline Project OPERATOR CAPACITY (million cubic feet per day) STATE Startup Date

Inergy Marc 1 Hub Line Inergy Midstream 555 PA Nov 2012

I know that President Romney will not shut down these pipeline projects and will not put a moratorium on fracking. I can't say the same for President Obama. [Hint: Keystone XL. Killed.]

I wonder how many jobs are at stake here?
