New Fortress to Reapply for Permits to Build Wyalusing LNG Plant

| | | | | | |
NOW we understand why antis have restarted their attacks on the various components of New Fortress Energy's Wyalusing LNG liquefaction plant--a project that has been dead as a doornail for three years. Yesterday we told you we were somewhat mystified by the actions of antis in the Delaware River Basin in opposing LNG-by-rail transportation and a permit for the seemingly dead project in land-locked Bradford County, PA (see Antis Still Attacking Dead NFE PA-to-NJ LNG Export Plan). And then the penny dropped. Actually, two pennies dropped. One penny (moment of understanding) is that NFE has, in its latest filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), confirmed it plans to apply for updated permits for the Wyalusing LNG plant. Cool! The project lives! The second penny is that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) has again failed to suspend an LNG-by-rail rule from the Trump administration era that was supposed to be axed no later than yesterday.
