In an op-ed carried by Newsday, Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal urges the state of New York to reject the proposed Broadwater LNG project in favor of other regional LNG projects also under consideration, including BlueOcean Energy, Crown Landing LNG, and Safe Harbor Energy. Blumenthal contends that “[s]ince federal approval [for Broadwater] is nearly certain, the main battleground now is in New York, where three separate state approvals [for the terminal] are necessary.”
