This website is for British Columbians who are concerned about the proposal by WestPac LNG to build a liquified natural gas (LNG) receiving terminal and a gas-fired generation plant on the north end of Texada Island. This project is NOT a done deal. There is plenty that citizens can do to ensure that it never becomes one. |
May 22, 2008: The Powell River Regional District approved this resolution calling for: - zero greenhouse gas emissions
... from new gas-fired electricity generation stations - implement a ban on LNG tankers
... in Malaspina and Georgia Straits
It is now backed up by supporting resolutions by:
- the Capital Regional District (both resolutions, Aug 2008),
- the Islands Trust (both resolutions, Jun 2008),
- the Regional District of Nanaimo (LNG tanker ban, Aug 2008),
- the Comox Valley Regional District (LNG tanker ban, Aug 2008),
- the former Comox-Strathcona Regional District (GHG ban, 2007),
- as well as a letter from the PRRD to the Premier of BC.
