spectra gas co thinks that just because they finished building this pipeline (supposedly, I've searched everywhere and there's no real info about how much of it is actually completed that I could find). In that "magical thinking way", that big energy has, that the Court has to agree with them. Not!
The Court Does Not Have To agree with spectra. That's what the Appeals Process is all about.
Guess Somebody Forgot To Tell spectra energy co, That This Is New Jersey And New York, The Cradle Of The American Revolution! From here; all the way south, past Washington DC too.
This so called;
"building the pipeline" by spectra, in actuality is, all they did was drill a trench a couple of feet (usually 3) underground and slide a section of pipe in and attach all the sections.
Just leave it there. But shut the pipeline down. Simple.
spectra knew, there was a lawsuit to stop their building this pipeline.
By continuing to build, it makes spectra energy culpable.
I e-mailed New Jersey Governor Christie last night.
I told him that spectra's pipeline was very dangerous and he should shut the pipeline down, below is a copy of what I said.
Governor Christie,
I've contacted you before. Just a reminder because the case is being heard this Wednesday Feb 19, 2014.
I've been documenting the dangers of this pipeline for over 2 years.
I agree with Jersey City's Mayor Healy. It's very dangerous for the NJ/NYC area.
Mayor Healy, is my hero!
They wouldn't even allow a pipeline like this in the Pinelands, but they're gonna run it in the middle of NYC, Jersey City, Hoboken and Bayonne. Makes no sense!
You can be my hero too Governor Christie, Shut Down The Spectra Pipeline. This would be very good for his image.
It's a tax write off for spectra energy co.
This pipeline is not worth the lives of millions of people, for $2.7 million, and $1.3 of it is a bond in case of environmental disaster!
Jersey City, is getting ripped off big time and I'm sure it's the same all over.
Be A Hero Governor Christie!
