Dat Tran, Chair of the Board of the PennEast Pipeline Company LLC, issued the following statement following US Senate approval of Neil Chatterjee and Rob Powelson to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission:
“After three years of review and three government regulators agreeing the PennEast pipeline can be constructed with minimal impact on the environment, we are heartened to finally see Senate action on restoring a quorum to FERC to now consider important infrastructure projects across the country, including final approval of the PennEast pipeline project. We are confident in our application to deliver clean burning, low cost American energy to families and businesses throughout the region for decades to come. We’re ready to get to work on this job-creating project.”
