BOSTON — Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey today led a coalition of nine attorneys general in calling on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to revise its policy for certifying new natural gas pipelines to consider potential disproportionate impacts on overburdened environmental justice communities and to better scrutinize whether projects are needed in light of national and state greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. In the comments filed with FERC Wednesday, the coalition argues that FERC must do more to satisfy its legal duties to ensure that new pipeline projects are in the public interest. The coalition calls on FERC to consider the significance of a project’s greenhouse gas emissions and to improve its engagement with environmental justice communities during the pipeline review process.
