Citizens Applaud Decision Denying Liquified Natural Gas Terminal and Pipeline
Citizens Applaud LUBA Decision Denying Bradwood LNG Terminal and Pipeline Opponents of the Bradwood project contend that the terminal and pipeline would have killed endangered salmon, increased foreign fossil fuel dependence, and imposed eminent domain on small private landowners.
Columbia Riverkeeper and partners won their appeal today when the Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA) overturned Clatsop County's decision to approve the Bradwood Landing liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal and pipeline. "This decision is a victory for healthy communities and clean energy," said Columbia Riverkeeper executive director Brett VandenHeuvel.
The successful appellants include Columbia Riverkeeper, Clatsop County citizens, commercial fishermen, the Columbia River Business Alliance, and the Sierra Club. These appellants were represented by Jan Wilson of the Western Environmental Law Center and Brett VandenHeuvel of Columbia Riverkeeper.
