We told PHMSA about our concerns with Columbia Gas Transmission's special permit request to be exempt from certain pipeline safety regulations.

In the last decade, there have been a high number of serious enforcement actions taken against CGT.

We submitted our hydrogen and carbon dioxide papers to the UN’s Special Rapporteur on Toxics and Human Rights.

Our hope is that our information can assist the UN and prove useful in assessing the potential for toxic impacts of climate change solutions.
