Lax Kw'alaams members to hear update on Pacific NorthWest LNG planning

The theme of LNG development will be on the agenda for Members of the Lax Kw'alaams Band later this month as the Band Council government hosts three information meetings to update members on the latest notes related to the Pacific NorthWest LNG project.

The community engagements sessions are planned for Lax Kw'alaams, Prince Rupert and Vancouver and will explore some of the background to the potential relocation of the proposed marine shipment terminal to a location on Ridley Island.

The Band Council will also provide updates on the progress in concluding agreements with Pacific NorthWest LNG, Prince Rupert Gas Transmission, as well as the provincial and Federal
Governments.

The meetings, which are open to band members only and those planning to attend are advised to bring photo ID with them, which will be required to enter the information sessions.
