Underground Construction - July 2021 - 13
rehearing) that " without the sanctity of
certifi cates granted under Section 3 and
7 of the Natural Gas Act, there would be
no private fi nancing; and without private
fi nancing, there would be no projects. "
FERC's dismissal of the rehearing
requests on technical grounds -
neither party alleged damage - leaves
undetermined the authority the
commission has to address complaints
about a pipeline or compressor station
after it is in operation, and on what
grounds. Th e Weymouth groups have
mostly argued that the compressor's air
emissions exceed what was approved.
But FERC has no authority over
air emissions, or even the safety of
a compressor or a pipeline. A state

environmental agency or the EPA
would come into play on air emissions;
the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials
Safety Administration has the
responsibility for pipeline safety,
and leveling fi nes for violations.
Sidley's Mallen said, notwithstanding
any federal appeals court decision in
the Algonquin case, FERC now has the
authority to issue a show cause order
under Natural Gas Act section 5, backed
by a proposed civil penalty if it has
cause to suspect a pipeline has violated
its underlying certifi cate order. FERC
recently asserted that authority in an
enforcement action initiated against the
Rover Pipeline on March 18, 2021.
Th e Commission charged that Rover
destroyed an historic house while its
application for certifi cate was pending,
even though it had promised in its
application that it was " committed to a
solution that results in no adverse eff ects "
to Stoneman House, an 1843 farmstead
located near Rover's largest proposed
compressor station.
FERC is asking for civil penalties
in the amount of $20,160,000 in that
proceeding. However, the allegations
concern actions that the pipeline may have
taken before it entered operation, when
jurisdiction over construction remained
with FERC, as opposed to another state or
federal agency. Th ere has been no similar
allegation of wrongdoing levied against
Algonquin, much less by FERC. *
