News Times Live Judge sides with Conn. on L.I. Sound pipeline
HARTFORD — A federal judge has sided with Connecticut officials in their battle to halt a proposed natural gas pipeline beneath Long Island Sound.
U.S. District Judge Stefan R. Underhill in Bridgeport last Wednesday ruled against the U.S. Commerce Department, which three years ago rejected Connecticut’s objection to the proposed Islander East pipeline. State Attorney General Richard Blumenthal announced the decision on Monday.
