 The provincial government will  review and assess the draft environment impact statement for the Downeast LNG terminal project. The paper-work was issued last Friday by the United States Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The province has also announced they will take appropriate action as a formal intervener in the FERC proceeding. In a statement, Premier Graham says the release of this paperwork does not come as a suprise and as an intervenor, the Province was aware this step was imminent for the Downeast LNG project.

Graham adds safety, security, environmental and economic impacts of these facilities for people who live along Passamaquoddy Bay will not be dismissed.

 The chair of the board of directors -- Richard Fulton -- says pre-liminary site work for the 18-million dollar complex will begin in late summer and be completed by 2011.
