  • October 1, 2020 Email: david.mcgovern@canada.ca David McGovern President, Impact Assessment Agency of Canada 160 Elgin Street, 22nd Floor Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H3 To Mr. McGovern, On September 8, 2020 City of Port Moody Council passed a resolution (attachment 1) expressing support for the critical assessment outlined in the report from Richmond Council titled “Tilbury Phase 2 LNG Expansion Project. Should the Tilbury Phase 2 LNG Expansion Project move forward, the social and biological health of residents in British Columbia would be put into jeopardy by the proposed expansion of Fortis BC’s LNP pipeline, while delivering doubtful economic benefits. The City of Port Moody opposes this project for the following reasons: 1. Fortis states that additional work will be required to commission the marine jetty, should that project be approved (under separate environmental assessment). The City of Port Moody would expect that this additional work ...

  • Re: Tilbury Phase 2 LNG Expansion Project (#80496) and related LNG terminal and tanker traffic This LNG project must not be located along the Fraser River. The location of this proposed expanded liquefaction and storage facility and related terminal and LNG tanker traffic have very high consequence hazards that violate the guidelines of the International Maritime Organization. Both industry-groups - SIGTTO (Society of International Gas Tanker and Terminal Operators) and U.S. DHS Regulations, strongly argue against locating LNG plants near human populations and/or in narrow inland waterways with significant aircraft, ferry, freighter and recreational traffic. Also it is vulnerable to high impact security/ terrorist threats which expose the LNG storage facilities on shore and LNG tankers along the river, to huge catastrophic fires and horrific fuel air explosions with devastating blast waves destroying ...

  • July 16, 2020 Canadian Impact Assessment Registry Re: Tilbury LNG proposal Reference Number 80496 Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing on behalf of the Raincoast Conservation Foundation to highlight the significant concerns that surround the proposed expansion of the Tilbury LNG facility. Two of these concerns include further habitat alterations in the Lower Fraser River and estuary, and the implications from increased shipping on Southern Resident killer whales. As Raincoast has said for some time, these large industrial expansions must stop being assessed as “one-offs” and become subject to federal and provincial cumulative effects assessments that consider their consistency with broader sustainability goals and the ecological limits these proposals ignore. It is contradictory for the federal government to invest millions of dollars to recover Fraser River habitat for threatened and endangered salmonids while on the other hand continue to approve projects that ...

  • The Tilbury Project should be cancelled on two grounds: 1. SIGTTO, Society of Gas Tanker and Terminal Operators, an industry association, advises against tanker traffic and facility siting within 3500m of busy waterways and populated areas, for safety concerns. The Tilbury project and shipping routes don't meet that standard and are directly across the river from a large jet fuel tank farm. 2. COVID-19 has been terrible of course but the cessation of much of human activities has been positive for the earth. As Canada plans for a new normal, that should include making the environment a priority. We need a green and clean economy.

We represent a network of Indigenous, settlers and newcomers in Canada working with people of faith or conscience all over the world for ecological justice and human rights. This project increases risks from fracking, undermines Canada’s progress on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, threatens the health and safety of communities, and undermines the rights of local First Nations. First, KAIROS is deeply concerned about the upstream impacts of this project associated with fracking. It is estimated that 2,800 new fracking wells are needed for this project. Fracking raises significant social and ecological justice concerns ...

  • LNG is not the harmless alternative its proponents claim it to be.  It is produced by Fracking, a process that uses vast amounts of water and toxic chemicals fracturing the earth.  In addition to causing seismic activity in areas not otherwise prone to earthquakes, fracking has poisoned drinking water in communities that depend on ground water for personal and agricultural use. LNG is classified as a hazardous substance.  FortisBc should not be expanding potential contamination of our province.

  • The industry association SIGTTO advises a 3500m buffer zone around tankers and terminals for safety reasons. The Tilbury project and shipping routes don't meet that standard and are directly across the river from a large jet fuel tank farm.  This is an incredibly dangerous project that DOES NOT have public support and was opposed by Richmond's council on May 8, 2020.

  • Hello: I am writing to support the Tilbury LNG expansion project for the following reasons: The project will produce clean-burning LNG that will replace Bunker C and MGO as ship fuels, thereby greatly reducing NOx, SOx and particulate emissions.  The project will be fully electrified (E-LNG), so it will be a very clean LNG facility. The project supports the BC natural gas industry, which from a GHG emission perspective is 5 to 8 times cleaner than the US industry on a life-cycle carbon analysis. The project will create hundreds of jobs during construction.   During operation, it will create ~100 direct jobs and 300 indirect opportunities for people in the lower mainland. LNG jobs are well-paying, full-time family wage positions, which is needed to rebuild the economy. The project will create spin off opportunities for businesses across BC The project will ...

  • Hello, The  interpretation of the Public Safety Canada, Pacific Regional Office is that we do not have a direct role in the subject areas and assessment for the Tilbury Phase 2 Expansion. The assessment is expected to to be focused at the regulatory and legislative levels, and presumably any emergency preparedness or mitigative activities during project development would be prescribed by regulations to be commented on by the specific regulatory provincial and federal departments.
