Statement from Greg Lalevee, Business Manager of IUOE 825, and Mark Longo, Director of ELEC, on recent PennEast decision:

“Following the acceptance of the Environmental Impact Statement and now the recent FERC decision proving the critical market demand for the project – we urge Governor Murphy to move this project forward. The main economic benefits are obvious when it comes to thousands of jobs and millions in local tax dollars. However, approving the PennEast pipeline will show the residents of New Jersey that the Governor is committed to making the state more affordable for all residents.”
