(Richmond)- The Atlantic Coast Pipeline project has been cancelled. Richmond-based Dominion Energy and Duke Energy announced yesterday the planned 600-mile natural gas line has been dropped over legal uncertainties that overhang large-scale energy development in the U.S.   The opposition led a fight to have federal and state permits for the project thrown out. The pipeline was supposed to run from West Virginia, into Virginia and end in North Carolina.
