The resolution was introduced yesterday by Senator Jimmy Higdon, who represents part of the area being considered as a route for the pipeline. The project utilizes a lot of existing infrastructure, but about 500 miles across Kentucky and Ohio would be new construction, which has met opposition from residents. Natural gas liquids are the byproduct of natural gas drilling, and contain materials like propane and ethane.

Original post: The Kentucky State Senate will consider a resolution on natural gas liquids pipelines, spurred by recent surveying in Kentucky for the Bluegrass Pipeline.If it's built, the Bluegrass Pipeline project would carry natural gas liquids from the Northeast to the Gulf of Mexico. Update 9:39 a.m: The Senate passed the resolution by a voice vote.
