Last week Massachusetts’ Office of Coastal Zone Management released a letter stating that Weaver’s Cove Energy, LLC had not submitted the proper permits and other information that would allow for the review of the company’s planned offshore LNG facility and associated pipeline infrastructure for consistency with Massachusetts’ federally approved Coastal Zone Management Plan. For procedural reasons, the letter also included a formal objection to the project’s federal consistency due to failure to submit the necessary information, but it notes that “review will commence upon receipt of the outstanding information.” The letter is available here.
