Delay then Deny: NY DEC Postpones Decision on Brooklyn LNG Regas.
National Grid is desperately trying not to run out of natural gas for its customers in Brooklyn and Queens (on Long Island). For several years the company has fought a battle to run a tiny pipeline to its Greenpoint, Brooklyn facility, to provide extra natural gas. That project is being investigated by the Biden administration on charges of racism (see Woke Nation: 2nd Fed Agency Investigating Brooklyn Pipe as Racist). Don't get us started. National Grid has a backup plan--add two extra LNG vaporizers to the Greenpoint facility to turn trucked LNG back into gas that can flow through the system. Irrational anti-fossil fuel fanatics are now trying to block even that minor project.
