After years of advocacy, organizing and public pressure, we have a major victory to celebrate in the fight against William Transco’s Northeast Supply Enhancement (NESE) pipeline. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has vacated New Jersey DEP’s Water Quality Certificate for NESE, removing a key approval needed for the proposed fracked gas pipeline to move forward through New Jersey waters.
New Jersey’s clean energy future has arrived. With more than enough existing pipelines in our state to meet current and future energy demands, it’s time to stop building unneeded, polluting fossil fuel infrastructure.
The choice is clear: Renewable energy can’t wait.
A new era — cleaner, healthier, more affordable — is upon New Jersey and the nation.
