NORTHERN ACCESS PIPELINE
TIME’S UP! ENOUGH is ENOUGH!
In January 2022, National Fuel applied to FERC, requesting 3 more years, until December 2024, to start and complete the Northern Access 2016 Pipeline Project.
Thank you to all who commented! We now await the decision of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Let’s hope they do the right thing by denying National Fuel three more years! Enough is Enough!
NYSDEC denied the necessary 401 Water Certification based on serious environmental concerns but National Fuel continues their attempt to plow ahead with gaining the right to trench across 192 WNY waterways with their fracked gas pipeline.
As they PERSIST, NoNAPL Coalition will RESIST from the fracking fields in PA and northward through Western NY.
