Join the "No LNG Exports Campaign" & 350 Salem on June 26th in Salem, OR to write comments to stop the proposed Pacific Connector fracked gas pipeline and Jordan Cove LNG export terminal! Event will start with a short play called "The Folly of Frack".

When: June 26th, 6:00 pm
Where: North Neighborhood Resource Center (945 Columbia St. NE, Salem)
What: The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the US Army Corps opened a 60-day public comment period for a critical permit that, if denied, could stop the proposed Jordan Cove LNG export terminal and Pacific Connector fracked gas pipeline. Comments are due July 21st unless the deadline is extended.

Oregon DEQ is responsible for deciding whether this massive fracked gas pipeline and export terminal would negatively impact the water quality in Oregon. Federal regulators cannot approve Jordan Cove LNG or the Pacific Connector fracked gas pipeline if the Oregon DEQ decides that the project does not comply with Oregon’s water quality standards. Fracked gas pipelines in Oregon, Maryland, and New York were stopped because state agencies denied this permit.

For the next two months, it’s up to all of us to submit comments that demonstrate that the impacts of this project would be far too devastating for the health and safety of our communities, clean water, and the local economy.

More meetings in Shady Cove, Klamath Falls, Chiloquin, Myrtle Creek, Camas Valley, Coos Bay, and Klamath to come! Stay tuned to nolngexports.org

BEFORE THE WORKSHOP: Call DEQ to ask for a longer public comment period in our communities!

DEQ has only given our communities 60-days to write comments about how this project would impact Oregon. Can you call Richard Whitman, the Director of DEQ, at (503) 229-5696, to ask for an extension of the public comment period for Jordan Cove’s Clean Water Act certification to 120-days?
