Charletta, ETRN president and chief operating officer. "MVP plays a critical role in meeting the growing demand for reliable, affordable, and clean-burning natural gas in the mid-Atlantic and southeastern United States. We appreciate the oversight of the various state and federal agencies that have helped guide our construction activities and expect to complete the roughly 8% remaining total project work by early 2021."
