ACTION ALERT: Tell Governor Sherrill to SAY NO TO NESE

On September 8, 2026, the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit deemed Transco’s Water Quality Certification unlawful; it now no longer exists.

This decision by the Court has implications for COA's lawsuit appealing the approval of the Tidelands Utility License by the NJ Tidelands Resource Council.

Tell Governor Sherrill to protect NJ’s waterways, public health, and environment by denying any future water quality certification applications for the NESE pipeline!
