FERC Releases Environmental Assessment for Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline Expansion
The proposed expansion of the Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline will not have significant environmental impacts if certain mitigating measures are implemented, according to the environmental assessment issued yesterday by FERC. The pipeline would transport regasified LNG originating from the Canaport LNG terminal, currently under construction in New Brunswick, Canada, to U.S. Northeast markets. The environmental assessment may be found in the FERC e-Library in Docket No. CP06-335. Platts Gas Daily provides additional coverage. [Subscription required]
