Natural Gas Pipeline Construction Worries Rockaway Peninsula Beachgoers

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — With summer officially beginning on Saturday, New Yorkers visiting the beach on the Rockaway Peninsula in Queens have been seeing something they did not expect.

As CBS 2’s Scott Rapoport reported, construction rigs for a natural gas pipeline have been set up on the ocean, and they are not going anywhere for a while. And the project is making waves.

“I worry about this stuff,” a man said.

“I’m really not sure if it’s something they should be doing,” a woman said.
