Feds OK #NaturalGasPipeline expansion in #PacificNorthwest over #environmentalist #protests
By CLAIRE RUSH
Updated 6:41 PM EDT, October 19, 2023PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — "Federal regulators on Thursday approved the expansion of a natural gas pipeline in the Pacific Northwest over the protest of environmental groups and top officials in West Coast states, who said it goes against the region’s plans to address #ClimateChange and could pose a #wildfire risk.
"The project, known as GTN Xpress, aims to expand the capacity of the Gas Transmission Northwest pipeline, which runs through Idaho, Washington and Oregon, by about 150 million cubic feet (4.2 million cubic meters) of natural gas per day. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission gave it the green light in a vote on Thursday.
"#TCEnergy plans to modify three compressor stations along the pipeline — in #KootenaiCounty, #Idaho; #WallaWalla County, #Washington; and #ShermanCounty, #Oregon. Compressor stations help maintain the pressure and flow of gas over long distances in a pipeline.
"Environmental groups criticized the decision."
