The Statesman Journal (Salem, Ore.; from Associated Press) reports that approximately 200 local residents attended a FERC hearing on the gas pipeline infrastructure associated with the Oregon LNG terminal proposal, many of them farmers who argued that the pipeline should follow existing roads and utility corridors instead of cutting across farmland as currently proposed. The meeting was part of FERC’s scheduled visit to review the Oregon LNG project.
