I agree about the NIMBY attitude, but do a little research on the compressor station. The states opposition to green energy is holding things back. We've closed a nuclear station, denied the various offshore wind projects, and haven't cooperated well with other surrounding states to bring in transmission lines.

The only purpose of the Weymouth station is to take natural gas from PA in the Atlantic Bridge pipeline, and re-pressurize it so it can be pumped to Maine and Canada and exported. Massachusetts doesn't benefit.
