Puglisi Asks DEC to Say No to the Algonquin Pipeline Expansion

Cortlandt town officials posted the text of Supervisor Linda Puglisi’s remarks at the New York state Department of Environmental Conservation hearing on permits needed by Spectra Energy to commence its Algonquin Incremental Market projec.

AIM would expand a few sections of its long pipeline from Pennsylvania to New England through Rockland, Westchester and Putnam counties. The AIM project is, as its name implies, the first of three expansion projects on that pipeline that Spectra has discussed with Westchester residents and officials.
