no!
to put these in, they clearcut a swath through the forest that is about 30 yards wide. and then that stays open for a year or more while they drive dump trucks and bulldozers around destroying the grass and brush layer
it might bring 700 jobs to the area, but they will only be temporary during the construction phase of the project. a lot of them will be filled by out of state firms with pipeline experience that have large contracts with the natural gas transmission company. it does not create any long term jobs in the area, the pipeline itself is unmanned; once the pipeline is complete, the jobs go away.
it takes years for the forest to recover (it has to regrow completely from mud) and we are left with a permanent notch through the land that has to be kept partially cleared for pipeline maintenance.
they recently did this up through Hamburg WMA and in wawayanda state park. i would highly recommend you go look at it for yourself.
I am definely AGAINST any more pipelines through the forested areas of the NJ highlands.
