“Thank you Senator Warren/Markey for writing to FERC and urging them to conduct an independent EIS on Atlantic Bridge and to answer questions regarding the conflict of interest between NRG (contractor that worked on the EA) and Spectra on June 9th, 2016.

As you know, Spectra AIM, the first leg of this illegally segmented project that connects to Atlantic Bridge, is underway in NYS against the will of Governor Cuomo, multiple NY State agencies and Senators Schumer and Gillibrand. We request that you respond to our letter hand-delivered to your office on June 20, 2016, with your Senator colleagues in NY, RI, CT who also have Spectra AIM Pipeline destruction progressing against legislators, local resolutions and strong community opposition, to hold a national press conference in Washington, DC, on July 5th 2016, demanding FERC issue a “Stop Work Order” to the AIM pipeline. Our lives are on the line!”
