Anna King

In a series of 12 radio pieces, Anna King is
bringing the underrepresented women’s
perspectives of the Hanford nuclear site out of
the shadows.
As a Northwest Public Radio
correspondent based in Richland, King is the
only journalist covering the Hanford Nuclear
Reservation full-time. She has closely followed
the mammoth on-again, off-again disposal of
nuclear waste at Hanford.

The east side of the Skipanon Peninsula, right, is the proposed location for a liquefied natural gas export terminal to
be built by Oregon LNG.
Appeals, meanwhile, is review-
ing Clatsop County’s rejection
of a permit for the pipeline por-
tion of the project in 2013. Or-
egon LNG had claimed that the
county Board of Commissioners
was biased against the project
— and LUBA agreed in the case
of one commissioner — but that
¿nding was rejected last year by
the Oregon Court of Appeals.
