Various agencies and the public have expressed concerns about potential environmental and social impacts, while some have shown support for the project.

    Texas Eastern Transmission, LP submitted an application to modify its previous plans for the Entriken Compressor Station as part of the Entriken Amendment Project. Originally approved to install an electric-motor driven compressor, Texas Eastern now intends to use a gas-driven compressor instead due to concerns about securing adequate electrical power. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) plans to prepare an environmental assessment for this amendment, with the document expected to be issued by March 7, 2025. The deadline for federal authorization decisions concerning this project is set for June 5, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    RYAL, LLC, a noncarrier company owned by Paul Didelius, has filed for a modified certificate of public convenience and necessity to lease and operate a 26-mile rail line in Washington State. This line is owned by the Port of Royal Slope and was previously leased to WRL, LLC. The line was authorized for abandonment in 1980 but remained operational after being sold to the Port in 1982. There are no subsidies involved, and shippers will not face preconditions for service. RYAL has also provided proof of insurance coverage as part of its filing.

    Simple Explanation

    RYAL, LLC wants to use and manage a railway track in Washington State that another company used to control, and they have insurance to do this safely. The bad news is we don't know how much money this will cost or how it might affect the people and nature nearby.
