Public Hearing Tesoro Savage Oil Terminal
A public hearing on the proposed Tesoro Savage oil terminal in Vancouver along the Columbia River is scheduled for tomorrow in Ridgefield, Washington.
The project, if completed, would ship about three hundred sixty thousand barrels of oil per day, almost half as much crude oil as the entire Keystone XL Pipeline.
Last week, more than one thousand people attended the first public hearing on the terminal, most of them opposed.
KBOO reporter Doug McVay spoke with Don Orange, a Vancouver business owner and an opponent of the oil terminal, to learn more.
Tomorrow’s hearing will be held from 5:00 PM until 11:00 PM, at the Clark County Event Center at the county fairgrounds in Ridgefield, Washington.
A third public hearing is scheduled for Thursday, January 14th, at the Centerplace Regional Event Center in Spokane Valley, Washington.
