Re: Woodfibre LNG – Public Comments Invited [February 9th to March 1st, 2016]

Please accept my comment on the analysis of the anticipated GHG emissions associated with the proposed Woodfibre Liquefied Natural Gas [LNG] Project in the Report named ‘Woodfibre Liquefied Natural Gas [LNG] Project – Review of Related Upstream GHG Estimates’.

The CEAA GHG Report dated February 1st, publicly available February 9th, for Public Comment until March 1st, 2016: http://www.ceaa.gc.ca/050/documents/p80060/104688E.pdf

I oppose the Woodfibre LNG Project in Howe Sound due to increased GHG emissions that will create a significant adverse environmental impact.

Reasons for opposition include:

 Canada’s COP21 commitment to reduce GHG emissions will be compromised should the Woodfibre LNG project be approved. It must not be approved.  Woodfibre LNG will emit about 1 million tonnes of GHGs per year ‐ increasing Canada’s overall GHG footprint at a time when GHG reduction is a pivotal commitment for Canada.  The Report fails to consider the negative environmental impact of fugitive methane gases in its scope. Recent peer reviewed scientific studies have highlighted the underestimation and the importance of fugitive methane gases in the overall GHG footprint of LNG projects.  Not factored into the Report is the increasing GHG footprint and its associated environmental degradation with mining more environmentally challenging Natural Gas resources over time.  Current Research identifies that the 100 year GWP [Global Warming Potential] factor used in the Report, is out of date. The responsible measure is the much larger 20 year GWP factor supported by science.  Inconsistent with current, and likely future, practice is the assumption of a 75%:25% BC:Alberta proportion of source gas. This underestimates the resulting GHG emissions.  The Report suggests that Carbon Capture and Storage [CCS] is imminent. To date, the economics and technologies of CCS have proven a fruitless unsupportable mirage, at ongoing public expense.

Climate change is dangerous. GHG emissions accelerate climate change. Refuse Woodfibre LNG !

We have come to council meetings, we have written letters, emails, made phone calls and so much more. We spent our own personal time, energy and money to get educated and to help make information available to the public. We all have said No to the WLNG proposal, not just once. Over and over again. How much more do we as citizens have to do to have our voices heard? Will you listen to us? Will you honour all the hard work we have put into this?

Kate Vincent BC CA LEAVE IT IN THE GROUND! Richard Pathak ON CA Richard Pathak Carol Davis ND US Fossil Fuel extraction and burning is a dying industry, in every sense of the word. Other countries in the G7 recognize this, and have invested heavily in green technologies over the past decade. Canada, on the other hand, has continued to heavily depend on fossil fuel extraction, and is the only country in the G7 in a recession; tens of thousands have lost their "oil patch" jobs and millions more are negatively impacted in numerous ways by our sinking dollar. Meanwhile in BC the Liberals are investing heavily in LNG, despite all evidence that the Global market for same is precarious at best.. It's embarrassing, irresponsible, and a potential disaster from an economic standpoint. From an environmental standpoint, developing LNG is all of Jessica Reid BC CA these things and dangerous to boot. Please, lets shift the focus away from fossil fuel industries and instead grow our green economy. for 3 cents on the dollar going to Canadians, and 97% of that fair market value of OUR bloody LNG going to the Indonesian corporation - it's a bad deal.

Plus, apparently they cause earthquakes, but I am not completely sold on that one. To make LNG, you require incredible amounts of power to compress and chill it. This power will come from drowning a vast area of land behind site C, and criss-crossing the province with more transmission towers. And as the water sits still in the reservoir, plant material that was present before flooding begins to decay and release methane into the atmosphere. Overall, hydro power is a great renewable source of energy, but we are building more capacity at what cost? The emissions from making and chilling LNG are astronomical. And most emissions coming from the production of natural gas from shale are not Patrick Smyth BC CA taxed (55 per cent for processing and venting) and therefore will not be subject to the tax to reduce emissions Barbara Kuhl BC CA Sandra Lea Dube BC CA The Howe Sound is one of the worst places to have LNG.

Please see the Big Picture. Jessica O'Brien BC CA Michelle Jansen BC CA Jacqueline Parsonage BC CA Sarah Brown BC CA I want to express my concern and worry that the reality of shipping LNG in itself is risky business. The Howe Sound is a narrow body of water that already has significant marine traffic including of course our BC ferries. We know that the Department of Environment has indicated that there will be accidents involveing tankers and that it's not a matter of if but when there will be an incident, and with a substance such as LNG this incident has potential to be very serious. I believe to allow this project to proceed is a case of rolling the dice regarding the safety and well being of the many residents within range of such a disaster. I also have serious concerns for the impacts of the proposed method of cooling and producing this LNG by using vast amounts of seawater and heating it up, processing it then putting it back in the marine environment. I worry that this will have a significant negative impact on the marine life in the Howe Sound and particularily the herring located near Woodfibre facility. Many have commented and observed how the health of the Howe Sound has made a remarkable recovery in the last twenty years after dealing with repercussions of mining problems and pulp mill located in the Howe Sound. I believe that locating this LNG industry in the Howe Sound is wrong. This area has huge value for tourism that attracts tourists from around the world coming to appreciate the serenity and beauty of the natural environment in this area. In conclusion I do believe that our focus now must be on developing renewable energy and not increasing our dependency On fossil fuels! The risks presented by this project far outway the benefits.

It places ALL local communities in an "incineration zone."

I also oppose Woodfibre LNG on the grounds that strong environmental oversight cannot be guaranteed by the owner who has a poor track record of this in every other project undertaken and is internationally viewed as a destroyer of the environment.

Last but equally important, I oppose Howe Sound because our province stands to make billions more in eco-tourism , fishing, and recreational use of this beautiful region than with LNG.

"mother of the winds").

Any way that one studies this project, independent of either political or corporate gain, one can only conclude that this is a very bad project for this area. Bad: economically, socially, culturally, environmentally whether land, sea or air, and biodiversity in its broadest terms, health-wise for humans and non-human species, air-wise in terms of pollution and contaminants, water pollution and disturbances (such as soil and sand dredging) inter alia.

Howe Sound is recovering in every way possible - why should it be destroyed now, again, due to corporate greed and political arrogance? Why should Squamish, which is becoming an amazing international environmental destination for a variety of non-polluting businesses or enterprises be destroyed or subjected to the hazards embedded in LFG project?

The dangers inherent in this project (including the component parts of the compression plant, the pipeline, the tankers) were largely skimmed over, as were the impacts of rising waters on the Site due to climate change. Why were these minimized or negated?

Studies of the insurance industry show that insurance for this type of project are becoming more difficult to obtain, or exorbitantly costly for both local property owners, local businesses and individuals in and around the Sound and Squamish. Why are insurance reports and concerns ignored or discounted?

Ignored is the overall good governance of the proposed project, whereby the present apparent or designated owners/investors, corporation(s) and/or individuals/businessmen to date have shown little concern for the above-mentioned issues in their own respective locales or countries, often to the extreme detriment of both the environment and locals. Why is good governance, including a recognition that destruction of the environment and biodiversity is no longer acceptable among more progressive societies, given such short shrift? Is that irresponsible in the long- term?

I agree with the earlier comments above about "The Report", which can hardly be said to have been undertaken and researched in a completely unbiased, non-partisan, non-political way. In my over 35 years of working nationally and internationally the way this review was conducted is one of the worst I have encountered. It does nothing to restore faith in government and its so-called transparency or independence.

Moreover, it was very revealing to note that the considerable research, analyses, papers and comments emanating from a huge number of public members, most of whom are extremely well educated (scientists, lawyers, doctors, health professionals, mariners, fishers, teachers, etc.) knowledgeable, articulate, and deeply worried about the future of not only Howe Sound but of the planet, were negated and/or trivialized. Why was that?

I hope that this present putative Federal Review will be conducted with a fairness and rigour, as well as openness and transparency, that was sorely lacking in the provincial review. The failure to do so will ensure that a large percentage of the population will lose ALL trust and faith in the workings of not only government generally and the BC government in particular, but of this new Federal government which has provided so many citizens with a sense of hope, excitement, optimism, and positivity which have been lacking for so many years.

We and this Government cannot ignore Green House Gas Emissions, not just at the site of Wood Fibre but right at the fracking sites (one cannot be divorced from the other); cannot ignore methane gas emissions which are even more toxic and dangerous than GHGE ; cannot ignore and forget the promise, before the world and all of Canada, to achieve quickly only a 1.5 degree increase in GHGE and climate change, and to set an example by reducing our local and global footprint.

Allowing the Wood Fibre LNG ( LFG ) project to proceed, and thus to allow it to contribute negatively to GHGE and climate change over the next 25 years is wrong in every way. If it proceeds it will be seen as the height of hypocrisy by Canada globally and by this Government by hard-working, tax-paying citizens who are concerned about looking after not only Howe Sound but Planet Earth for all of humans (and even much beleaguered other Theodora Carroll BC CA species) Please do not approve this project Thank You Troy Morphy BC CA Louise walker BC CA Megan Greenberg BC CA dennis keithley BC CA seek solar solutions Gerd Moore BC CA Norma Tandrup NL Tandrup Robin Wentzel BC CA Keith Klips BC CA Unnaceptable-NO LNG ON THE WATERS OF HOWE SOUND...... Gloria Lachance BC CA Murray Campbell BC CA Klaus Urbantke BC CA TrVis Williams BC CA As a senior I have seen the cumulative effects of short term thinking, largely focused on near term profits, in economic policies. The lack of factoring in environmental devastation and consequential economic losses to longer term fortunes has lead to the untenable environmental situation we and our children and grandchildren face now and in the future. Woodfibre LNG is not worthy of development when mid and long term risks to the environment Gina Fieldhouse BC CA and local communities are taken into account. I ask you please to refuse development of Woodfibre LNG. To my mind the risks to the environment and the communities of Howe Sound far outweighs any economic which might result from this project. On its merit it should be refused and I am asking that this project be refused for the welfare of present and future inhabitants of Howe Sound and Planet Donald Fieldhouse BC CA Earth.

If we keep emitting GHG we will see the deadly effects of catastrophic climate change in the lifetimes of children being born this year! Troy Algar BC CA Frances Dickenson BC CA I am virulently opposed to WLNG for numerous reasons, the first being the flow through cooling system resterilizing Howe Sound after it finally recovers from decades of industrial pollution. Secondly I am opposed to the practice of fracking in general because the quantities and effects of fugitive methane as a GHG have not been properly studied or assessed to the extent that they should be. This would include escaped methane all the way from well site to compressor station to liquification processes to transport to regassification, and finally to burning. Thirdly I am opposed to the LNG industry in general for fiscal responsibility reasons. Spending this much money to launch an industry with prices this low for the commodity is David Crowther BC CA sheer financial lunacy, and it must be stopped before too much is spent and too much environmental damage is done needlessly and foolishly. Please consider the failing grade of the Provincial government in the past to adequately monitor such disasters as the Mt Polley mine tailings pond spill. I have no confidence that they can ensure the integrity of tailings ponds which will be a result of the fracking required for this industry.

Jack Stansfield WA US Karen Carlyle BC CA Michael Owen-Evans BC CA Michael Owen-Evans Monica Hromada BC CA Juan Camilo Cortes BC CA Lisa Reynolds BC CA Michelle Ganske BC CA I find the credibility and integrity of Woodfibre LNG highly questionable and in fact extremely worrisome. I simply do not trust that Woodfibre LNG has anything else on their mind but the most possible profit and here is why: ï‚· According to their website, Woodfibre LNG “will not make any compromises when it comes to the safety and security (...) of workers, communities and environment.” ï‚· Here another quote from their website: “We will look to support the environment (...) by being good stewards of the forest, fisheries, wildlife and water resources on the site” Why then do they only decide to run off electric power AFTER the input and feedback generated from community consultation??? Why didn’t they decide to do that from the get- go? If the switch to electric power reduces GHG emissions by about 80%, wouldn’t that be a no- brainer? Why did they even need community consultations to make that decision? Why then do they only decide to build an onshore liquefaction plant instead of a water-based one AFTER the input and feedback generated from community consultation??? Why wouldn’t they lead the way (rather than follow) if they really were what they proclaim – “good stewards† who “will not make any compromises”? And I’m only going by their own advertising! That leaves me wondering: What are the things that aren’t being advertised??? The Woodfibre LNG approach as it has been unfolding leaves me with the bad taste of something that I would summarize as “Let’s see how much and how far we can get without being caught”. The benefit for the community and the safety of the environment seems to only be of interest insofar as they need enough support to get the go-ahead. After learning about hydraulic fracturing, I am disgusted by the 1⁄4-page ads by Woodfibre LNG that promote LNG as the cleanest burning fossil fuel - odourless, colourless, non- corrosive and non-toxic... That to me comes dangerously close to flat-out lying. It reminds me of my daughter shoving all her clothes into the closet, closing the doors and showing off her “tidied† room with a proud smile. The difference being, that the impact and the consequences of fracking “clean† NG are terribly devastating. Fracking is destroying the country that we’ve come to love so much. It breaks my heart!!! Back to my concerns for my immediate neighbourhood, my community, my Squamish: I do not trust Woodfibre LNG! Not even to mention Sukanto Tanoto... I do not trust that “Woodfibre LNG will not make any compromises when it comes to the safety and security.” I do not trust that “The cornerstone of operations and standard of performance at Woodfibre LNG is based upon the safety of workers, communities and environment.” I cannot support the proposed Woodfibre LNG project sited on the old Woodfibre industrial lands, nor anywhere in Howe Sound. It is becoming clear that there are too few benefits Claudia Weiland BC CA (a handful of jobs and minimal revenue in Municipal taxes) that are outweighed by far too many costs to our environment, our health, and the future economic stability of Squamish.

The project's development is accompanied by environmental risks that are not outweighed by any benefits including fiscal ROIs to the citizens, taxpayers --essentially the owners of these provincial resources.

As a recent Tyee report indicates, "the price of natural gas in B.C. and Alberta is artificially low because their provincial governments actively reduced royalties for natural gas in recent years.

Alberta and B.C. now charge an average five per cent royalty for natural gas. In contrast, most U.S. state governments charge a 12.5 per cent royalty for natural gas.

As a consequence of these low royalties, revenues from national gas extraction have declined dramatically from a high of $1.4 billion in 2003 to a low of $238 million in 2012.

Last year, B.C.'s auditor general reported that the government provided more financial incentives to the shale gas fracking industry ($587 million) than it earned back in royalties."

Given the absence of any financial benefits to the citizens and taxpayers of BC and Canada and the substantive environmental risks the development of the Woodfibre Liquefied Natural Gas [LNG] Project is an unwarranted and unjustified financial and environmental burden that should not proceed.

There are much better ways now to create Linda Brown BC CA energy, and Canada has fallen far behind much of the developed world. Our ways of doing business will shortly look incredibly antiquated. We were advised about the narrow arena in which comments are invited. We were told to comment on science when it is all too evident that science has little to offer.

Murder is wrong, Murdering our planet is stupid. Hiding behind these narrow parameters which occlude truth is dangerous and deadly. Harper knew how dangerous LNG is. Please do not forsake the ocean that is your bailiwick. Do not leave these decisions to Christie Harper. The people are speaking. Thank you for this opportunity and your listening. Do not pass this to the business arena of the cabinet. You signed on to be responsible in desperate times. So much is dependent on this. Site C is to fuel LNG instead of feeding 1.000,000 people.

Adding additional tankers to the Salish Sea must be considered to be potentially harmful to Southern Resident Killer Whales. Without realistically and fully mitigating ship noise, vessel strikes, shipping pollution and resolving the individual project incremental harm and sum total cumulative harm to this species, all current shipping, in reality, are in breech of SARA legal protection. Additionally, the proposed twin service pipeline between Indian Arm and Squamish, an ecological sensitive area as well, and it does not make sense due to the terrain and vulnerability. Both proposed LNG pipeline and port put community and First Nation assets at risk. Even if there was some monetary weighting applied in a cost benefit analysis on this project, these natural assets are irreplaceable and their loss could not be mitigated or Karen Whiteside BC CA justified at any level.
