Demonstrators Gather As Spectra Pipeline Gets Go-Ahead
Resume
Spectra Energy received federal permission on Wednesday to start service of its controversial natural gas pipeline in West Roxbury. The Houston-based company says it will begin transmitting gas to its customer, National Grid, in Boston on December 1.
This morning, about 30 anti-pipeline demonstrators gathered at the West Roxbury site where work on a gas pumping facility has just finished.
The demonstrators say they'll keep fighting and will seek an injunction to prevent the pipeline from operating.
