An environmental-law firm has filed a “motion to intervene” in a lawsuit filed by Texas energy company Kinder Morgan, which is seeking to build a 360-mile petroleum pipeline from Belton, South Carolina, to Jacksonville, Florida. GreenLaw, based in Atlanta, filed the motion July 28 in Fulton County Superior Court on behalf of several environmental organizations, including the Ogeechee Riverkeeper, Savannah Riverkeeper and Center for a Sustainable Coast. If ultimately approved, 210 miles of the Palmetto Pipeline would be built in Georgia, including dozens of miles in Screven, Effingham and Bryan Counties.
