Earlier this month, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy asked the NJ Transit’s board to withdraw the permits, saying the power plant didn’t line up with the state’s climate policies. New Jersey law requires the state to cut its carbon emissions by 80% below 2006 levels by 2050.
The issue centers on the NJ Transitgrid, a $577 million microgrid designed to provide reliable service on a key portion of the rail system between New York City and northern New Jersey.
The project was conceived after Superstorm Sandy caused widespread lengthy power outages along the East Coast in 2012. Two years later, the Federal Transit Administration awarded $410 million for the project.

DustBoss Atom designed for precision applications
Peoria, Illinois-based BossTek says its new DustBoss Atom has been engineered to provide an unmatched level of mobility and performance, delivering effective dust and particle suppression for new and existing applications.
With a throw of 100 feet (30 meters), the Atom’s adjustable elevation angle and user-defined oscillation allow precise aiming of a powerful dust-capturing mist comprised of millions of droplets per minute in the 50-to-200-microns range, which BossTek says is “proven to be the most efficient size for most project needs.”
The company describes the DustBoss Atom as “a true innovation in mobile dust suppression: a fan-less, self-contained design that incorporates remote control and 4G LTE telematics technologies as standard equipment to deliver an unprecedented combination of suppression and monitoring.”

Several countries around the world have set expiration dates for the Oil Age, mandating that automakers eventually stop selling ICE vehicles in their jurisdictions. In September, California became the first US state to propose a similar step. New Jersey’s Department of Environmental Protection has also set a goal of eliminating ICE vehic
LDPE film demand increases on the West Coast
The tight trucking market also is affecting movement.
Plastic film scrap has seen strong demand heading into 2021, and the availability of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle scrap has tightened. Regardless of which material contacts are sourcing, all of them point to transportation issues that are making movement of material more difficult and expensive.
“Scrap availability for postconsumer A Grade film is very tight,” says Charlotte Fischer, senior commodities manager for PreZero US Inc.’s Jurupa Valley, California, plant. She attributes that in part to more aggressive buying by consumers in Indonesia, Malaysia and India, the latter of which she describes as actively buying off the West and East coasts. Additionally, she says, “Some LDPE (low-density polyethylene) mills in Taiwan are coming into the market to buy film.”
