Antis, Township Sue to Block Iroquois Compressor Expansion in CT

Iroquois Gas Transmission’s Enhancement by Compression (ExC) project would increase horsepower at three compressor stations — two in New York and one in Connecticut — by an extra 125 MMcf/d, to flow more Marcellus/Utica gas into New York City and New England. The two NY compressors are in Dover and Athens. The CT compressor is located in Brookfield. In September, we told you that the Sierra Club paid for a fake study bashing the Connecticut portion of the project (see Antis Attack Iroquois Plan to Expand Connecticut Compressor Stn). The left continues its attack. A Big Green puppet group, Save the Sound, along with the Town of Brookfield, is using Connecticut's Superior Court to try to block the project.
