Senator O'Connor sends letter to MassDEP

From Senator O’Connor’s Facebook page: “Today, I submitted a formal comment to the MassDEP to assert my serious concerns with the reapproval of the air quality permit for the Weymouth compressor station.

While the air quality permit irresponsibly moves forward, the issues that Fore River Basin residents and I brought forward years ago have still not been addressed or alleviated by the permitting department or the applicant, Enbridge.

If the public is going to be forced to reckon with this environmental and public safety hazard, the least MassDEP can do is provide answers to the basic requests for information that Fore River residents have made.”

Thank you, Senator! You can read his full letter below.
