Environment Minister Mary Polak and Natural Gas Development Minister Rich Coleman have issued an Environmental Assessment Certificate to LNG Canada Development Inc. for the LNG Canada Export Terminal project, which will be located in northwest British Columbia in the District of Kitimat. The decision was made after considering a review led by British Columbia?s Environmental Assessment Office. The ministers have issued the certificate with legally enforceable conditions that have given them the confidence to conclude that the project will be constructed, operated and decommissioned in a way that ensures that no significant adverse effects are likely to occur, with the exception of adverse effects from greenhouse gas emissions. A record of the factors that the ministers considered in making their decision can be found in the Reasons for Ministers?Decision at: http://tinyurl.com/q73pgwh
