Submitted by the Franklin Township Task Force on Compressor Station 206 & NESE.
Though FERC’s definition of “need” for the NESE Project is only based on economics, under the National Gas Act, and since National Grid has subscribed to purchase all the gas that this Project would deliver, it is not unexpected that FERC issued their Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity for the NESE Project on May 3.
Even though the FERC claims that the impacts from NESE would be temporary and short-term, there is enough evidence and lack of study to show that it is dangerous, unnecessary and will have a negative impact on New Jersey’s environmental resources.
