RPC Commissioners Hear about NH Site Evaluation Committee Process

2018-04-11

At the April 11, 2018 RPC Commission meeting, Pamela Monroe from the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee provided an overview of the NHSEC and its process to approve siting of energy facilities in the state. (The full presentation is available here.)

This presentation was requested by the RPC to better inform our Commissioners and communities about the permitting process for siting the Granite Bridge Pipeline Project, and underground natural gas pipeline and storage facility proposed by Liberty Utilities within the RPC region. The pipeline is proposed to be built within the NHDOT Route 101 right of way from Manchester to Stratham, with the storage facility being located in Epping near Exit 6.

RPC will continue to monitor the project and to compile information on our Granite Bridge Pipeline Proposal page.
