Abstract
The potential environmental impacts of the proposed Maritimes and Northeast Pipeline project were discussed. Particular emphasis was placed on the probable response to the approval application in the state of Maine through which it would run in part. The area in question is not only heavily populated but it also contains many environmentally sensitive animal and plant species. Concerns arise about the safety and compensation of landowners along this portion of the route, loss of tourist traffic, and danger to certain species of Atlantic salmon, which have already been decimated by hydroelectric dams, commercial fishing on the high seas, and sport fishing on rivers, farming and forestry practices. The Maritimes and Northeast Pipeline crosses some of the rivers with fragile salmon populations. These crossings are likely to give rise to third party interventions at FERC hearings whose approval is also essential to construction on U.S. territory.
