BUCKINGHAM — The Buckingham County Planning Commission will meet Monday at 6 p.m. to consider a special use permit request for Atlantic Coast Pipeline LLC to construct a proposed 53,515 horsepower natural gas fired compressor station on Route 56 between Shelton Store and Union Hill roads. A decision and recommendation to the county’s board of supervisors could come during the meeting. Residents in the area have been vocal in their opposition to the station and overall project, including during a two-part hours-long public hearing where dozens of people cited numerous issues. The meeting will be held in the Peter Francisco Auditorium of the County Administration Complex on Route 60.
