Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line (Transco) is a natural gas pipeline which brings gas from the Gulf coast of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, to New Jersey and much of the New York metropolitan area – namely, New York City and Long Island – by way of Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. It is owned by the Williams Companies. Its FERC code is 29.
In an agreement with the EPA and U.S. Department of Justice, the Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation tests soil and groundwater contamination near its compressor stations. This agreement also included a cleanup program for polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB).
