Jim Smith: LNG: Heavy on risk, light on benefits
- The recent conditional decision by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to permit a liquefied natural gas plant in Sparrows Point/Turner Station runs counter to our interests of protecting public safety, restoring the Chesapeake Bay and preventing terrorism. Plus, it pushes us further away from achieving energy independence. I would like to assure the citizens of Baltimore County and the region that I will continue to stand by the families of eastern Baltimore County in aggressively fighting this threatening and burdensome proposal.
