Route of proposed pipeline near Dora, MP 27

The orange banner is 100' wide, the width of the clearcut needed to build it, and it's 3' high, the diameter of the high-pressure gas pipeline.

 

The pipeline would feed the proposed Jordan Cove LNG Export Project in Coos Bay, on the shores of the Pacific Ocean. It would liquefy natural gas from Canada and send it to Asia. While there would be no benefit to Oregon, we would have to mitigate our largest greenhouse gas emitter, and suffer eminent domain for over 600 private land owners, not to mention the wildlife that would loose their home on the 70 miles of public forest reserves the pipeline would clearcut through.

 

In fact, the banner width of 100' is the smallest width of the clearcut, which could go as large as 150'.
