Sierra Club has filed a protest with FERC in opposition to LNG Development Company, LLC’s (d/b/a Oregon LNG) application to construct an LNG export and import terminal in Warrenton, Ore. Sierra Club argues, as it has in other LNG export terminal cases, that LNG exports will (1) induce gas production from hydraulic fracturing leading to environmental harm and (2) raise domestic gas prices. Copies of the protest can be accessed here, and the complete docket for the Oregon LNG project can be found on eLibrary by searching for Docket No. CP09-6.
