We just got this regarding an extension for public comment on the pipeline proposed to go through Rensselaer County:
FERC EXTENDS SCOPING COMMENT PERIOD
NASSAU SUPERVISOR HAD CALLED FOR FEDERAL HELP FOR FERC TO EXTEND PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD AFTER DOCUMENT DUMP
High pressure pipeline project would cut through Nassau and include massive compressor station in residential area
STATEMENT BY SUPERVISOR DAVID FLEMING:
Nassau, NY - September 3, 2015 - I would like to thank the thousands of impacted residents as well as the public officials, that have joined together to call on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to extend the public comment period on the proposed Tennessee Gas Pipeline project. This massive project would blast through Rensselaer County and permanently damage the hamlets of Clarks Chapel/Burden Lake. We have just received official notice that FERC has extended this comment period until
October 16, 2015.
This extension is vital for our impacted communities to comprehensively review the more than 6,000 pages of information that have been dumped on them.
