Will Pilgrim Pipeline be Allowed to Settle in the NY World?

| | | |
Pilgrim Pipeline Holdings is developing an East Coast pipeline to carry refined petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel, heating oil, and jet and aviation fuel northbound from Linden, New Jersey to Albany, New York (178 miles). In addition, a second pipeline will carry crude oil from Albany south to NJ and other locations. Two pipelines, side by side, liquids flowing through them in different directions. Pilgrim (how apropos this announcement comes at Thanksgiving) has just filed an official application with the Thruway Authority. Their plan is to lay 79% of the pipeline within the Thruway right of way. No, technically this is not a Marcellus/Utica story--although some of the crude they plan to flow from Albany to NJ refineries may indeed come from the Marcellus/Utica. It's a pipeline for fossil fuels and that will surely bring the crazies right out of the woodwork, which is why we bring you this story...
