flag NY approves NESE pipeline for NYC gas supply, despite climate concerns and higher bills.

flag New York Governor Kathy Hochul has approved key permits for the Northeast Supply Enhancement (NESE) natural gas pipeline, reversing prior rejections and allowing construction to move forward despite environmental concerns. flag The project, backed by former President Trump, aims to boost gas supply to New York City and Long Island but is expected to raise residential bills by about $7.50 monthly. flag The state’s Department of Environmental Conservation cited compliance with the Clean Water Act, though critics argue the decision undermines climate goals and public health. flag New Jersey must still issue an air-quality permit, and environmental groups may challenge the approval in court.
