AI Summary

This bill aims to regulate the location of pipelines in Massachusetts. It proposes to prohibit the construction of new fossil fuel transmission pipelines within 1 mile of playgrounds, licensed day-care centers, schools, churches, areas of critical environmental concern, or residential housing. However, the bill allows for the repair or replacement of existing pipelines, as long as they do not increase capacity, without being subject to this 1-mile restriction.
