F.E.R.C. Upholds Bradwood Landing Decision

MEDIA ALERT
Oregon, Washington
FERC Upholds Bradwood Landing Decision
January 15, 2009

The Oregonian: "FERC's approval is the final administrative step before the state can launch a federal court challenge of the agency's regulatory process. Gov. Ted Kulongoski has threatened such a course of action if his complaints about the federal regulatory process weren't satisfied. He is now supported by a new attorney general, John Kroger, who has expressed opposition to the three LNG terminals proposed in the state."


CP06-356-002, CP06-366-002, CP06-376-002 and CP06-377-002

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) today denied rehearing requests of its order authorizing the construction and operation of the Bradwood Landing LNG terminal on the Columbia River in Clatsop County, Oregon, and for the construction and operation of the associated 36.3-mile long pipeline from the terminal to an interconnection with Northwest Pipeline Corporation’s interstate pipeline system north of Kelso in Cowlitz County, Washington.
