Zombie Antis Fight to Block Williams NESE Pipeline in NY, NJ

Anti-fossil fuel fanatics haven't given up on trying to block construction of the Williams Northeast Supply Enhancement (NESE) pipeline, a $1 billion+ project designed to increase Transco pipeline capacity and flows of Marcellus gas heading into New York City and other northeastern markets. Last November, the states of New York and New Jersey issued federal Clean Water Act permits for their respective states, allowing NESE to be built (see Trump Won: New York & New Jersey Issue Water Permits for NESE Pipe). Antis sued both the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the environmental agencies of NY and NJ (see Radicals Sue NY, NJ to Block NESE Pipeline Water Permits). Antis are now trying to persuade the new radical governor of NJ, Mikie Sherrill, to deny permits that allow construction to begin in her state.
