Amid growing opposition to its plans to place an electric-driven compressor station in West Milford, the Tennessee Gas Pipeline Co. will hold a virtual public presentation on the proposal this month.
Pipeline officials said the informational session is “to provide additional information about the compressor station and address some of the recent concerns expressed by the local community.”
The meeting, set for March 22 at 7 p.m. on Zoom, could prove pivotal, as elected officials at the municipal and county levels have yet to take a stance on the controversial project to install a 19,000-horsepower natural gas compressor along an existing pipeline in West Milford.
New Jersey is entering peak wildfire season, and because of a wet and active winter, the state's Forest Fire Service hasn't been able to act as proactively as it'd like in order to reduce the chances of a significant fire event this spring and summer.

(Reuters) - PennEast Pipeline Co said on Thursday it still expects to put the first phase of its $1.2 billion natural gas pipeline project in Pennsylvania in service in 2022 and complete the second phase from Pennsylvania to New Jersey in 2024.
PennEast is involved in a case before the U.S. Supreme Court with New Jersey over whether the company can seize state-owned or controlled land under federal eminent domain rules.
Earlier this week, the Biden administration filed a brief with the Supreme Court that agreed with a filing by the Trump administration urging the court to overturn a 2019 ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. That ruling blocked PennEast from using federal eminent domain to seize state land.
