Officials Reschedule Algonquin Pipeline Protest

Cortlandt Town Supervisor Linda Puglisi and other elected officials, including state Assemblywoman Sandra Galef, will be speaking out April 2 in opposition to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s decision to issue a conditional Certificate for Spectra’s AIM project.

The event, originally scheduled for March 20, was postponed due to snow.

Spectra Energy plans to expand its natural gas pipeline that runs through Rockland, Westchester and Putnam counties on its way to New England and international markets. The second phase, called Atlantic Bridge, is now before FERC.

The event at Cortlandt Town Hall starts at 3 p.m.
