The company behind an embattled $124 million gas compressor filed suit against Metro Nashville on Friday, the Nashville Post reports. In addition to the lawsuit, the Tennessee Gas Pipeline Co. also asked the federal district court in Nashville for an injunction after the Metro Nashville Council passed ordinances that would hinder the company’s ability to begin construction. In both filings, the company argues Metro's regulatory purview is subordinate to that of the federal government.
