Safe Energy Rights Group

SEnRG is a group of engaged citizens working together to protect communities in the Northeast from unsafe energy development and infrastructure. We employ our experience and professional expertise to assist those impacted by harmful fossil fuel projects in exercising their rights to safe, sustainable energy. Our goal is to provide credible information and support to ensure that communities of all sizes can protect their health and safety. To this end, we assist citizens in taking social, legal, and political action as they demand meaningful dialogue and adherence to the law from elected officials and permitting agencies. SEnRG's first project is a legal challenge to Spectra Energy's AIM (Algonquin Incremental Markets) pipeline expansion project. On March 3, 2015, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued the approval certificate for the Algonquin AIM pipeline project, Spectra Energy’s dangerous, and ill-conceived pipeline expansion adjacent to boththe Indian Point nuclear energy facility and a working quarry doing frequent blasting. SEnRG is currently working with several community groups from New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts to fund a rehearing motion to challenge FERC's approval of the project.
