State Assemblyman: Franklin ‘Not Equipped’ To Handle Gas Compressor Disaster

November 6, 2018 Environment

State Assemblyman Joe Danielsen tells representatives from the state DEP that the township is not equipped to handle any disaster that might occur at a proposed natural gas compressor station.

The township is “not equipped” to handle any potential disaster that could occur at a planned gas turbine compressor station targeted for a 52-acre tract in Little Rocky Hill, state environmental officials were told Nov. 5.

That was the word from state Assemblyman Joe Danielsen (D-17), one of more than 100 people who were scheduled to speak during a Nov. 5 state Department of Environmental Protection public hearing held at Franklin High School.
