Florida Southeast Connection pipeline preliminary filing with FERC

What costs

less than a latte or a slice of pizza?


A day’s electricity from Florida Power and Light, according to

FPL VP Pam Rauch who also is NextEraEnergy VP and President of yet
another pipeline company shell that wants to pull a 100 foot gas pipeline through
Georgia for the benefit of Florida.

Still more

names in the pipeline shell game:
Pamela Rauch who filed FP14-2 for

Florida Southeast Connection LLC (FSC),
is

Vice President, Development and
External Affairs for NextEraEnergy
and

Vice President of External Affairs for Florida Power & Light
Company (FPL) in January since 2008;
on her



LinkedIn profile
she has the NextEra logo next to the FPL name.
Here’s a nice picture of her

making a case for an FPL rate increase for, among other things,



“our ability to finance the billions of dollars in improvements that keep reliability high and bills low, and that create thousands of jobs for you and your neighbors.”

Those would include

“modernizations” as Spectra rep Andrea Grover put it in Moultrie like
closing coal plants and building
this

pipeline through Georgia
by Spectra Energy, a company with

a corrosive-record of property damage
and

PCB-spilling environmental damaga
for neighbors like hers in Florida.
We could have more jobs for people right here through rooftop solar, and we’d get energy, reduced bills, and no risk of PCB or other spills.

What do you think about this,
neighbors in Georgia?
Maybe you’d like to get the Lowndes County Commission to get Spectra and maybe FSC to

come explain themselves?

Sabal Trail pipeline preliminary filing with FERC

Look at the other company names in this filing:


Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC (Transco),
Florida Southeast Connection, LLC (FSC),
and Merjent, Inc.
And another one, since filer Lisa A. Connolly is listed by Spectra as with

Gulfstream Natural Gas System, LLC.
Oh, and she’s also
General Manager, Spectra Energy Transmission, according to

Center for Houston’s Future.

United Way of Houston says she’s
General Manager, Rates & Certificates
for the Spectral puppet master, Spectra Energy.

All three shells, Sabal Trail, Transco, and FSC,
are hoping to get a common environmental rubberstamp
with Merjent ghost-writing their Spectral document:

Transco- and FSC-sponsored projects are requesting separate pre-filing reviews.
However, you have indicated that these three projects are connected actions and, as such,
my staff will perform a single environmental review of these projects and will prepare
one environmental impact statement that addresses all three projects….

My staff has reviewed the proposals submitted for the selection of one third-party
contractor to assist us in preparing the National Environmental Policy Act documentation
required for the Sabal Trail, Transco, and FSC Projects. We have selected Merjent, Inc.
(Merjent) as the third-party contractor to work under the direct supervision and control of
the Commission staff for all three projects. I request that you, Transco and FSC proceed
with executing a contract with Merjent so work may begin as soon as possible.
