The conductor class group conjecture for associated graded rings

Let RR be a Cohen--Macaulay ring, let p\mathfrak{p} be a prime ideal of finite projective dimension, and let G=t0pt/pt+1\mathrm G=\bigoplus_{t\geq 0}\mathfrak{p}^t/\mathfrak{p}^{t+1} be the associated graded ring. Assume that G\mathrm G is not integrally closed, let G\overline{\mathrm G} be its integral closure, and let HH be the subgroup of Cl(G)\mathsf{Cl}(\overline{\mathrm G}) generated by the classes of the prime divisors containing the element used in the localization argument. Free-group conjecture. The group HH is free. Examples and general arguments suggest this structure, but the source gives no proof or resolution.
