The pipeline expansion known as the AIM project was supported at the time by Senators Reed and climate champ Whitehouse in addition to former DEM director Janet Coit. When the AIM Project was approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission FERC it was known and admitted in the Environmental Impact Statement that the noise level of the compressor station on Wallum Lake Road in Burrillville exceeded the federal standards. This was supposedly to be remediated within a year or. I doubt that that ever ever happened, but who knows?

The plan was (and undoubtedly still is) to export the fracked gas piped north from the Marcellus Shale via Canada to the world market. Weymouth was "blessed" with a new compressor station to make that happen. And then along comes the sabotage of Nordstream 2 to help in that project. What a marvelous coincidence. Yeah, right!
