This meeting is geared to folks who are familiar with the issue and who have participated in efforts to stop the proposed LNG project. Other interested people will be welcome too. Just know that we will not be detailing out all the history.
The list of proposed agenda items below is to stimulate pre-meeting thinking and is open for amendment and additions.
Suggested items for the agenda:
Our goal statement for the overall effort
Update on where the proposal is in the process
Likely next steps – – deadlines, DEIS release, comment deadlines
List of allies (local and statewide) and what they are committed to do
Legal options and when they might be appropriate
Our local opportunities and strategies
How do we want to be effectively visible in the community? Vis a vis FERC? The Governor? Our state legislators? Merkley, Wyden and even Walden?
What resources (people and other) do we need?
What information and stories do we need to address the jobs issue?
(Where is that white paper on jobs that someone committed to get months ago?)
Thanks in advance for helping this happen and especially to Sarah and Hannah for offering their knowledge and expertise.
