The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission set a Nov. 27 deadline to issue an environmental assessment for TransCanada Corporation’s proposed Portland Xpress Project, according to the agency’s Sept. 24 notice. The project would boost natural gas supply to New England and Atlantic Canada markets by modifying the existing compressor station in Westbrook, Maine, and adding horsepower to station in Eliot, Maine, according to the company website. Both stations are jointly owned by Portland Natural Gas Transmission System and Maritimes and Northeast Pipeline LLC. The project would supply 214,375 million cubic feet per day of gas to New England on the Portland transmission system and 22,339 million cubic feet per day on the Portland and Maritimes joint facilities. A final decision is due by Feb. 25, 2019.
