A gasket failure at an unfinished natural gas compressor station in Weymouth led to an unplanned gas release Friday morning, causing workers to trigger an emergency shutdown.
Enbridge, the company overseeing the project, reported the gas venting in a letter to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) Friday.
The company is required to notify MassDEP within two hours of any unplanned gas releases at the station that exceed 10,000 standard cubic feet of natural gas.
This is a developing story and the post will be updated
