Tell the B.C. government to put PRGT through a modern Environmental Assessment
Halt PRGT construction. This pipeline needs a new environmental review.
Bechtel and Ledcor want to start building the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission pipeline this month. But Nisga’a, Ts’msyen and Gitxsan people are vowing legal action to stop it – and even blockades.
The B.C. government has the power to avoid this conflict. They can pause the bulldozers, and put PRGT through a modern Environmental Assessment.
PRGT was approved in 2014. But it’s changed so many times it no longer resembles the original proposal. Now they want to add a new route along the seafloor to a proposed gas terminal on Pearse Island, far from Prince Rupert.
Meanwhile B.C. laws have changed. Energy markets have changed. And our climate is changing drastically. Tell the B.C. government: PRGT needs a whole new review.
