The Mobile Register offers this editorial praising Alabama Gov. Bob Riley’s opposition to the proposed ConocoPhillips open-loop LNG terminal following the corporation’s withdrawal of its application on June 9. The piece argues that the terminal’s risk of causing damage to Alabama’s coastal habitat and fishing industry warranted Riley’s opposition, and that Alabama likely will soon see a proposal for an offshore closed-loop terminal.
