As many as one LNG bunker vessel or tanker is planned to go up and down the Fraser River each day
Metro Vancouver says it will begin consulting with Fortis BC and its partner over the recent federal government-approved Tilbury Marine Jetty LNG terminal on the Fraser River, now set for construction in 2025.
With the approval came a revised contemplation of how many ships will pass up and down the river annually — a near tripling, in fact, from an original projection of 274 annual trips along the river to 730. The Wilderness Committee’s petition was given to Richmond-Steveston MLA Kelly Greene, which was presented on March 7 in the B.C. legislature.
The assessment addressed concerns over ship noise that can be harmful to the killer whales; it also looked at ship strike risks, finding whales to be vulnerable to both.
