Iroquois Gas Transmission System, LP (“Iroquois”) is proposing a ‘compression only’ enhancement of its existing system to receive an additional 125 million cubic feet per day of natural gas at Iroquois’ interconnect with the TC Energy Canadian mainline in Waddington, NY for redelivery to New York utilities.
The ExC Project involves the addition of compression and associated gas cooling at existing Iroquois compressor station sites only. All new facilities will be constructed entirely within Iroquois’ existing compressor station properties. No new pipeline is proposed as part of this project. |

The ExC Project anticipates filing a formal application with the FERC in late January 2020, and is anticipating approval by early 2021.
The FERC, as lead federal agency, will make an assessment of the project from an environmental standpoint and will issue a determination of whether or not the proposed project is within the public convenience and necessity. Additional information on the FERC process can be found at www.ferc.gov and by viewing the brochure: Your Guide to Electronic Information at FERC
Upon receiving all necessary permits, construction activities for this project are expected to begin by the spring of 2023. These activities will include mobilization of personnel and equipment, site preparation, and installation and testing of new compressor and gas cooling facilities. Construction should be completed by November 1, 2023.
