Shut Down-spectra's natural gas transportation pipeline in New Jersey And New York City!

Or; It Ain't Over, Till It's Over.
Stop spectra!


♥For My Grandfather Michael Murphy. He worked on the Central Railroad; (in Jersey City), 100 years ago. Unloading box cars with a big hook. He and his fellow workers, sweltered in the summer and froze in the winter!

Action Post
Contact New Jersey Governor, Chris Christie

Contact New York Governor, Andrew Cuomo

Contact President Obama

Tell them; STOP, the spectra pipeline!

The spectra pipeline is expected to pump 800 million cubic feet of gas a day, starting in Linden, NJ (Bayway Refinery). Eventually making its way to Manhattan.

I Predict A Renewed Wave Of Political Activism In 2014 ♥ A Very Busy New Year

November 2 2013
Thirteen people were arrested for blocking the West Side Highway adjacent to the site where Spectra Energy has completed a pipeline entering Manhattan from New Jersey.


In December 2012, Jersey City filed a lawsuit in Federal Court to halt construction of spectra's proposed pipeline.

This suit, hasn't been heard by the court yet. I read the news every day awaiting the Court's decision so I know it hasn't been settled yet. Jersey City is still waiting the Federal Courts pending decision concerning the overturning of FERC's decision.

Legal arguments, against the spectra gas pipeline. For ♥All My Friends In New Jersey, New York♥ And Everywhere♥

Private property rights are fundamental to freedom.

Founding father Samuel Adams described it as an “essential” right and wrote, “that no man can justly take the property of another without his consent.”

Detailed Maps-Proposed Pipeline Route

The Danger

Incredibly; spectra wants to run the Manhattan portion of the pipeline from, Liberty State Park in Jersey City, past the Statue Of Liberty, Ellis Island, Castle Garden (War of 1812 Era Fort Clinton And America's first immigrant receiving center), The Holland Tunnel, The New Jersey Turnpike, etc and off Hoboken's pristine shoreline, into Manhattan's West Village. Spectra laying a pipeline to bring FRACKED gas into the West Village Really Scary! This is crazy!

On June 28 2012, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) granted approval to spectra to proceed with construction of the pipeline and ok'd spectra's original proposal.

Construction and testing are finished. Now this gas pipeline will go into service next month, with gas flowing  through Bayonne, Jersey City and offshore Hoboken.

spectra and con ed plan to bring fracked gas, laced with radon, into New York via a new explosive, high pressure pipeline. This is bad for the environment and bad for New Yorkers.


 

From Bayonne to Hoboken, spectra's controversial natural gas transportation pipeline is expected to start pumping gas November 1st by Joseph R. Vena/The Jersey Journal October 24, 2013

I wrote this diary because I love New York City, Jersey City and they really turned Hoboken into a beautiful city. I have many friends in Manhattan and Jersey City.

I don't know how spectra got a permit for this project to begin with.

Considering the large number of people all over Jersey City, NYC and with the West Village's congestion, allowing spectra's gas pipeline in this densely populated area, is totally reckless and irresponsible!

For ♥All My Friends In New Jersey And New York♥

Stop spectra natural gas [transportation] pipeline!
Jersey City's long- standing Opposition to the spectra gas pipeline. There is no doubt the proposed line could imperil invaluable natural habitats, precious and diverse ecosystems, billions of dollars in economic infrastructure, and the more than a quarter million residents of Jersey City”. Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah Healy

Even; after all the destruction and flooding from hurricane sandy, federal agencies are still, allowing spectra gas, to continue with their proposed pipeline! Jersey City agency grants easement to spectra energy; City Councilman objects December 05, 2012 by Terrence T McDonald/The Jersey Journal

Jersey City has filed with the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in Washington, D.C. a Petition for Review, challenging both FERC’s constitutionality as a regulatory agency and its approval of the Spectra pipeline. The move marks the next step in the city’s legal fight against the pipeline.
Stop spectra's (Long-Haul Transportation), Gas Pipeline In NJ & NY!

I find allowing spectra to start to break ground when the case is not settled is outrageous and spectra's rush to break ground everywhere is a move to intimidate people! Psychological manipulation is a type of social influence that aims to change the perception or behavior of others through underhanded, deceptive, or even abusive tactics.

No one can claim eminent domain regarding Federally designated Historical areas. They might try to pull that on the environmentalists. But that Federal Historical status, is set in stone

I don't even want to imagine what a tidal surge wave storm like sandy would do to spectra's proposed pipeline! It's only placed a few feet underground  See question 3 frequently asked pipeline questions q Can crops be planted over a pipeline?  a Seasonal crops may be planted over the company's pipelines. While planting and tending the crops, you should take care in tilling and plowing not to damage the pipeline.

spectra corporation and others like it are and have been claiming eminent domain all over the US. What a racket!

Only thing; in Jersey City, for spectra to enter along their proposed route, they would have to cross the historic Morris Canal, (filled in). This is not only, one of the areas totally destroyed by hurricane sandy, but it is a Federally Protected environmental area and is, also and a Federally Protected Historical Site National Register of Historic Places Official Website 

List of US National Historic Landmarks By State

spectra loses. spectra cannot claim eminent domain on Federally protected sites like this. Isn't this the reason for having Federally protected land?

Contact Your Government Officials Tell Them To Stop spectra gas pipeline in New Jersey and New York. Contact Elected Officials Call, e-mail, or mail U.S. state and federal elected officials and government agencies.

Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah Healy, is one heck of a guy. He is; for sure, one of my heroes! Taking on spectra gas co. I've got your back Jersey City, Hoboken and Manhattan's West Village! And yours too, Mayor Healy.

Thank You Mayor Healy!

For ♥My Friends In Bayonne, (N.J)

I remember I used to walk past with my Mother, when I was a little girl and all of you used to say hi to me.

I also remember how they chased you out of town just because you were Gypsies. Then you came back and now you own the entire block, (both sides of the street). Good for you.


Thousands of European Gypsies (Roma) in Europe, are suffering from malnutrition and hypothermia, existing in cardboard communities on landfills and urban ghetto holding pens they call home. They have no electricity, running water, education or medical care.
