Comments on Southeast Compressor Station

Clean Air Council (the “Council”), Earthworks, and Stop the Algonquin Pipeline Expansion (“SAPE”) (collectively “Organizations”) hereby submit the following comments in response to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s (the “Department”) draft permit for Algonquin Gas Transmission’s (“Algonquin”) Algonquin Incremental Market (“AIM”) project with respect to the Southeast Compressor Station (“Southeast”), Permit ID 3- 3730-00060/00013. Algonquin intends to increase the pipeline size and compressor station horsepower along its mainline, and install at Southeast two gas-fired turbine-driven compressors, a gas-fired emergency generator, one gas heater, a gas cooler for the new compressor units, and a remote reservoir parts washer.
