JERSEY CITY AND BEYOND – This morning the staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) published its Final Environmental Impact Statement on the proposed Spectra Energy pipeline proposed to run through Jersey City and Bayonne.
Here’s the link from FERC’s eLibrary database:

The four-member commission will now review this final impact statement, and the entire record on the case, including earlier comments submitted in response to last year’s draft Environmental Impact Statement, and will render a decision. While a final decision from the commission is expected on June 14, a FERC spokeswoman stated Friday that, “There is no statutory time frame by which the Commission must act.”
