Take Action to Oppose the Eversource Pipeline Under Connecticut River


Join Sierra Club Connecticut to send letters opposing the Eversource proposal to build a new methane gas pipeline under the Connecticut River, impacting state parks in Middletown, East Hampton, and Higganum. This pipeline threatens the local ecosystem, climate, and community health. Letters will be sent to Commissioner Katie Dykes from the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, your state legislators, and the Connecticut Council on Environmental Quality. You can find more project information here and general info about pipelines in the Northeast here.

I am deeply concerned over the expansion of methane gas in Connecticut. In particular, I am worried about Eversource’s proposed construction of a new gas pipeline under the Connecticut River. I am writing to ask that your urge DEEP to not allow this project to move forward because of the destructive impacts that it will have on our local ecosystem, river, community, and energy prices. DEEP needs to follow through on their commitments to climate action and environmental protection and stop allowing new fossil fuel infrastructure to move forward. Thank you,
