DEP suspends review of all clean water permit applications and other pending approvals associated with the Energy Transfer, L.P. (ET) and subsidiaries until further notice due to non-compliance

 

On Friday, Governor Wolf and the Department of Environmental Protection issued a ban on the issuance of water and earth-moving permits and approvals for Energy Transfer pipelines in Pennsylvania.

In response, Joseph Otis Minott, Esq. Executive Director and Chief Counsel of Clean Air Council, issued the following statement:

“The ban on new permits to Energy Transfer is the kind of leadership on pipelines that the public has been waiting for from Governor Wolf. This was a crucial step to protect the public from a company with a track record of environmental destruction, public safety disasters, and deception. The next logical step is to stop the operation of ET’s Mariner East pipelines for good.”
