CALGARY — Environmental organizations, a northern Alberta First Nation and a group of concerned landowners are asking the Alberta Energy Regulator to conduct a full-scale environmental impact assessment of the oilsands' industry's massive proposed carbon capture and storage project.
The groups say they want the regulator to hold a public hearing on the Pathways Alliance's proposed $16.5-billion carbon capture network, which would capture CO2 emissions from more than 20 oilsands facilities in northern Alberta and transport them via a 400-kilometre pipeline to an underground storage hub near Cold Lake, Alta.
Ecojustice says the groups behind the request have a wide range of concerns about the proposed carbon capture project, including water consumption, pollution and safety.The photo shows the bear wandering across a mountain overlooking a California city. “Hard to believe such a big fella could be so near.”Historic Death Valley tower topples over as driver uses it to free vehicle, rangers say
