Maybe Coderre was right: The National Energy Board wants TransCanada to rework its application for the Energy East pipeline because the document is too hard to understand — even for experts. In a letter to TransCanada the NEB said it’s not requesting a whole new application but wants the information repackaged so they can make sense of it.
The original 2014 filing was 30,000 pages long — filling 68 binders in 11 boxes — and the NEB says it’s since become even more complicated.
