Environmental Group Files Suit Over Natural Gas Pipeline Route

Posted on Jul 26, 2007 in Canada & Mexico, Environmental, Litigation | Comments Off

Sierra Legal filed suit in the Canadian Federal Court of Appeal on behalf of the Friends of Rockwood Park against the Canadian National Energy Board (NEB) alleging that the regulatory body failed to consider alternative routes for Emera Pipeline Company’s gas line that would connect the Canaport LNG terminal to the Maritimes and Northeast Pipeline. The Friends of Rockwood Park contend that the NEB was required by law to consider an underwater route for the pipeline under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. The Telegraph-Journal (New Brunswick, Canada) provides further coverage.
