DC Circuit Rules Against FWW in KM Pipeline Expansion to NYC

Tennessee Gas Pipeline’s (TGP) plan to flow an extra 115 MMcf/d of Marcellus gas to Westchester County, NY, and New York City to be used for Consolidated Edison customers is called the East 300 Upgrade Project. The project took a giant leap forward in April 2022 when the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued permits that allow TGP to upgrade two existing compressor stations (in PA), and build a brand new compressor station in West Milford (Passaic County, NJ), just across the border and not far from Westchester County (see FERC Issues Compressor Permits for TGP’s East 300 Upgrade in NY, NJ). The odious (and misnamed) Food & Water Watch (FWW), a far-left, very radical group, challenged FERC’s approval of East 300 with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia (see Food & Water Watch Sues FERC to Block KM Pipe Expansion to NYC). The D.C. Circuit ruled against FWW on Friday.
