FERC Chairman Apologizes to Rhode Island State Representative

FERC Chairman Jon Wellinghoff apologized to Rhode Island State Rep. Raymond E. Gallison Jr. (D) last week for an incident at a meeting to discuss the Weaver’s Cove LNG project. When two people, including Rep. Gallison, refused to sign a non-disclosure form in order to participate in the meeting, the event was cancelled. EastBayRI.com provides additional coverage.

Separately, Gordon Shearer, CEO of Weaver’s Cove Energy, LLC filed comments with FERC disagreeing with Chairman Wellinghoff’s decision to offer an apology to Rep. Gallison. Find Mr. Shearer’s comments under Docket No. CP04-36 in the FERC eLibrary.
