ATLANTA (AP) — A committee evaluating petroleum pipelines in Georgia is holding public hearings in Augusta and Atlanta.
The Augusta Chronicle reports that the hearings will include testimony and comments from the public.

A hearing in Augusta is set for 10 a.m. Nov. 3 at the Columbia County government building.
Another hearing is planned for Nov. 17 in Atlanta. The time and place for the Atlanta hearing haven’t been announced.
