A New Jersey Natural Gas project to lay a new secondary gas line across Little Egg Harbor from West Creek to Long Beach Island has encountered a problem: a pipe is stuck.

Supervising engineer Joe Puglisi from NJNG attended the Eagleswood Township Committee meeting March 25 to report that a pipe in the ground is stuck, and all efforts thus far to dislodge it have been unsuccessful. The work has been held up for several weeks as a result.
