People’s Meeting with Governor Brown
After 15 years of pipeline resistance, on June 11 five community members will have an in-person meeting with Governor Brown to ask her to stand up against this dirty fossil fuel project. While the meeting with the real Governor happens, we’ll host a People’s Meeting outside where we’ll share community testimony against the pipeline. We’ll also be the first to hear the meeting report back from our coalition representatives and learn whether Governor Brown will agree to our demands and finally stand up against the pipeline!
Join us in showing the Governor that our numbers are strong, and we stand in solidarity with those inside the meeting. Facebook event here.

OREGON DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY DENIES CLEAN WATER PERMIT FOR JORDAN COVE LNG
Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has delivered a potentially fatal blow to the Jordan Cove LNG project and the Pacific Connector fracked gas pipeline which has faced fierce opposition for more than a decade by a grassroots coalition of impacted landowners, anglers, small business owners, tribal members, health professionals, and many more Oregonians and Northern Californians. In today’s action, Oregon DEQ denied the Clean Water Act Section 401 permit because the massive LNG export terminal and pipeline could not demonstrate that they would meet Oregon’s clean water standards. Jordan Cove LNG and the Pacific Connector Pipeline cannot be built without the state permit. With their denial, DEQ released 200 pages of detailed findings about how the project does not meet Oregon’s water quality standards. DEQ notes that “DEQ does not have a reasonable assurance that the construction and authorization of the project will comply with applicable Oregon water quality standards.”
Meanwhile in Washington State, on May 8, Governor Inslee, who originally supported the Tacoma LNG facility and the world’s largest methanol refinery proposed for Kalama, has expressed firm opposition to both these projects and any future fracked gas infrastructure, something project opponents have been demanding from him for years. Now it’s time to let Governor Inslee know he needs to put actions behind his words. Call Governor Inslee: 360-902-4111
