But as Peoples covered holes in the ground for projects that were put on hold, it also convinced the ICC earlier this month to give the utility another shot with a 'limited scope' rate request rehearing to fund completion of the unfinished work.
Starting any new pipeline replacement work will depend on the state's broader review of the program.
