Enbridge files to withdraw Sandpiper applications!
September 1st, 2016
YES! It took them a month from their announcement, but finally, Enbridge has filed to withdraw the Sandpiper pipeline Certificate of Need and Route applications, and has asked to suspend the contested case and EIS process in the meantime.
There is a 14 day window to “object” to this Certificate of Need withdrawal, and a 10 day window to address the Motion to suspend contested case.
Now’s the time to say “WITHDRAW, WITHDRAW WITH PREJUDICE!” Now’s the time to say “WITHDRAW ALL RELATED APPLICATIONS” because there are so many applications for transmission lines for pumping stations, i.e., the Clearbrook Transmission Line!
And then sometime after the Comment period ends, PUC staff will issue “Briefing Papers” and then the Commission will schedule a meeting to address this, with at least 10 days notice. Expect, then, at least a month before the PUC acts.
Now, about that Line 3 replacement project…
