EnCana's Proposed Northeast B.C. Cabin Gas Plant

Accounting for the Climate Change Implications

EnCana proposes to build a natural gas processing plant in northeast British Columbia. The Environmental Assessment Office is accepting comments on the proposal until August 21, 2009. At full operational capacity, the plant would process up to 800 million standard cubic feet per day of raw natural gas. It would emit 2.2 million tonnes of greenhouse gases per year. This document summarizes the Pembina Institute's recommendations for addressing the climate change implications of the proposal during the project's environmental assessment, and provides information on how to learn more and how to get involved.
