EPA Shows Environmental Concerns for Bradwood’s Liquified Natural Gas Project

The US Environmental Protection Agency gave the Bradwood liquefied natural gas project a Draft Environmental Impact Statement rating of EC-2.  In other words, they don’t have enough information.  In the letter to Bradwood, the EPA asks questions and makes suggestions related to the DEIS development process concentrating on an alternative analysis and missing information regarding interrelated projects.

Bradwood’s proposal indicates that the project would b placed on the Columbia River at river mile 38.  Unfortunately for Bradwood, further down the river is federally designated as the Clean Water Act’s National Estuary Program, meaning the area is of great ecological importance.
