A Notice about an LNG Meeting being held in Massapequa:

Wed. Feb. 25 - What exactly is LNG and how will it impact our community?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wednesday, February 25, 2015 @ 6:45 p.m.
for a Community Forum on the Port Ambrose LNG Terminal 
Public Library - Bar Harbour Bldg.
40 Harbor Lane, Massapequa


Port Ambrose is a proposed offshore facility for liquefied natural gas (LNG) tankers, just a few miles off our beaches.  Come to this meeting and learn how this proposed terminal will impact Long Island.

In 2013, over 400 people came to Long Beach to oppose the scoping hearing for the Port Ambrose Project. A public comment period ensued and over 25,000 comments were submitted against the LNG terminal - only 17 were in favor.  But that didn't stop them.

Then on January 7, 2015, Liberty Natural Gas held its only New York hearing on the Draft Environmental Impact Study in Queens rather than Long Island, with the hopes that Long Islanders would not be able to make it to that event. 

Hundreds of people came to the hearing and the vast majority of comments made were in opposition to the proposed liquefied natural gas terminal off our south shore.  The Coalition of Nassau Civics and others requested that the public comment period be extended and it agreed to extend it to March 16, 2015.
