BOSTON – Hundreds of area residents are threatening to disrupt a proposed gas pipeline project that promises to increase the supply of natural gas to the Northeast, but which could infringe upon the property rights of homeowners.
More than 400 homeowners in the North Shore and Merrimack Valley area are refusing to allow workers from the Kinder Morgan-Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company onto their property in order to conduct preliminary analyses.
According to multiple reports, there are at least a pair of connections to New England among the hundreds who were either killed or injured in Tuesday's terrorist attacks in Brussels.
The Hartford Courant reported that a resident of Fairfield, Conn., was injured in the attack. The office of U.S. Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) confirmed one of his constituents received treatment for non-life-threatening injuries, but would not release the name of the victim.
