Yesterday, Williams marked the official start of construction on the Northeast Supply Enhancement (NESE) project with a groundbreaking ceremony at Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn, New York City. It was an energy-star-studded event. Williams CEO Chad Zamarin was, of course, there and spoke.

Also on hand for the ceremony was (surprise!) FERC Chairwoman Laura Swett. We don’t ever recall a FERC commissioner attending a groundbreaking ceremony for a pipeline.
