Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal has filed a formal objection with New York’s Office of General Services to the planned Broadwater LNG terminal in Long Island Sound. Citing a “common stake in this shared threat,” he claims the “project as proposed poses a direct and substantial threat to human health and safety and critical ecosystem resources of national importance.” Broadwater officials assert that Blumenthal is mischaracterizing the potential impacts of the project. The New Haven Register provides further information.
