Environmental Group Wants Enquiry into Enbridge Gateway Proposal
Sun, 2009-01-18
The Friends of the Wild Salmon Coalition is calling for a full public inquiry into Enbridge's proposed Northern Gateway Project. The project, if approved would consist of two pipelines - one to transport tar-sands oil from Edmonton to Kitimat, and the other would transport condensate from Kitimat, back to Alberta. Friends of the Wild Salmon Coordinator Pat Moss says they are concerned about the location of the pipelines.
Moss says the coalition is continuing to worry about the potential impacts the project would have on the wild salmon in the Northwest, along with other environmental impacts.
The Northern Gateway project is currently undergoing a public and government review process, which includes an Environmental Assements.
