Radicals DEMAND Northeast Governors Oppose Enbridge Pipe Project

| | | |

The Algonquin Gas Transmission pipeline (owned by Enbridge) transports up to 3.09 Bcf/d through 1,131 miles of pipeline. Algonquin connects to Texas Eastern Transmission (TETCO), Millennium Pipeline, and Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline and supplies New England with critically needed natural gas supplies for power generation and consumer use. As we told you in September, Enbridge conducted an open season to gauge interest in expanding Algonquin’s capacity to flow more gas into New England — mainly from the Marcellus/Utica — called Project Maple (see Enbridge Open Season to Expand Algonquin Pipe in New England). A coalition of “90 environmental organizations” (many of them one- or two-person operations) sent letters to the governors of the New England states and New York State last week demanding (they always demand) that the governors publicly oppose Project Maple.
