(GREENCASTLE) - Pipes for the Rockies Express natural gas pipeline have been arriving in Putnam County.

The pipeline will run from the Rocky Mountains of Colorado to Monroe County, Ohio and is scheduled to be completed by the end of the year.

In September 2006, pipeline officials announced plans to change the original route of the pipeline north of Bainbridge due to concerns about the nature preserve located on the banks of Big Walnut Creek.

Originally the pipeline was proposed for the north side of U.S. 36 across the entire county, but the nature preserve forced officials to direct it south instead.
