About Company

Iroquois Gas Transmission System, L.P., a limited partnership of four U.S. and Canadian energy companies, owns and operates a 416-mile interstate natural gas pipeline extending from the U.S.-Canadian border at Waddington, NY, through New York State and western Connecticut to its terminus in Commack, NY, and from Huntington to the Bronx, NY.  Iroquois was created in 1985 as a cooperative venture with a promise to bring greater supply diversity and competitively-priced natural gas to the Northeast. Since commencing full operations in 1992, Iroquois has continued to fulfill that promise by providing safe, reliable natural gas delivery service to meet the growing energy needs of the populous Northeast. We remain committed to making positive contributions to the economic success and quality of life for the towns, cities, and regions we serve and pass through.  Iroquois wholly-owned subsidiary, the Iroquois Pipeline Operating Company, headquartered in Shelton, Connecticut, is the agent for and operator of the pipeline. Iroquois does not produce the natural gas it carries nor does it own it; we simply transport it for various shippers to other transmission pipelines, power plants and local distribution companies who then bring it to the places where we work and live.

OUR OWNERSHIP

Iroquois Gas Transmission System was created in 1985 as a cooperative venture to provide the Northeast with supply diversity and safe, reliable delivery of cost-effective and clean-burning natural gas.

IROQUOIS MAINTAINS THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF INTEGRITY

It is the policy of Iroquois Pipeline Operating Company (the "Company") to maintain and enforce the highest standards of integrity in all its business activities. This includes business activities conducted on behalf of, and for, Iroquois Gas Transmission System, L.P. ("IGTS"), a Delaware limited partnership on whose behalf the Company acts as operator. In this regard, as employees, officers, directors and agents of the Company ("Company Representatives"), we strive to conduct our business in strict compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations so that we may always be regarded as an ethical organization comprised of dedicated and competent individuals of high integrity and credibility.  To ensure continuing attention to matters of ethics and standards on the part of all Company Representatives, our Code of Business Ethics represents a written extension of the personal integrity typically exhibited by Company Representatives who have complied with our policy to protect the interests of the Company, its owners, and those with whom we do business. Each year, the Company distributes a survey to employees to help identify and address potential compliance concerns. Employees have a duty to report any concerns whenever they suspect misconduct or illegality. In all cases, retaliation for good-faith reporting is strictly prohibited. The Company provides a variety of reporting options. A dedicated, confidential compliance telephone line and website allow employees to remain anonymous, if they wish. Employees also may report concerns by contacting the Chief Compliance Officer and other appropriate personnel. Each of us is ultimately responsible for our actions. It is intended, therefore, that all Company Representatives be aware of this Code of Business Ethics and our Harassment: Personal and Sexual Harassment Policy since good business practice dictates that suspected dishonest or unlawful activity be promptly identified and investigated. Moreover, it is expected that all Company Representatives, and anyone doing business with our Company, will exercise the highest level of integrity and judgment in all business matters.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES, CONTINUOUS MONITORING FOR SAFE PIPELINE OPERATIONS

  • Located at our corporate headquarters in Shelton, CT, Iroquois gas controllers monitor and operate the pipeline, including system pressures, flows and customer deliveries, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Backup location sites for gas control operations are maintained in the event Iroquois corporate headquarters was to become inaccessible.
  • Iroquois Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system is the backbone of the gas control centers communications. It provides data collection, monitoring and remote operation of the compressor stations, meter stations, and mainline valves. Redundant communication methods are in place to provide backup should it be needed. Operating conditions outside of predetermined ranges and set points will cause alarms to sound at the gas control center, resulting in rapid diagnosis and resolution of the alarm condition.
  • All of Iroquois compressor station combustion turbines were installed to incorporate emission controls mandated by federal and state agencies. These controls reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by more than 50 percent as compared with emissions associated with more conventional compressor station control technology. These emission reductions are proven and documented by periodic “stack testing” and agency reports.
