It crosses rivers, mountain ranges and a mix of private and public lands. Lesley Adams, head of the Rogue Riverkeeper conservation group, said the state of Oregon still has to decide on a Clean Water Act permit for the pipeline, and if FERC approves the projects, a coalition of landowners and conservationists plan to take legal action to reverse it. “It’s clear to us there are adverse impacts to forests, streams and species,” she said. “One of the big problems with the project is water — raising temperatures and sediment LPSDFWVRQ¿VK´ The port facilities to be built include a shipping channel, berths for LNG tankers and tugboats and refrigeration facilities to turn the gas into a liquid.
