The Pembina story got a boost following an announcement from the City of Prince Rupert of a "triggered milestone" this week for the project, a benchmark that will see the LPG Terminal developed at the industrial site that the city has turned into a Trade and Logistics park.
A pair of other City Council issues also received a significant amount of attention this week, with readers exploring more on a decision to reject a request for Permissive Property Tax Exemptions from two Prince Rupert organizations.
Readers also reviewed our notes on a question raised by a member of the public in the Committee of the Whole session, with an inquiry on the status of any Civic information related to the ammonia exposure incident at the Civic Centre of earlier this month.
The sad news of the passing of a young Prince Rupert woman attending an event on Texada Island also resonated with readers, as the community shared a number of thoughts on her passing through social media and a Go Fund Me Page created in her memory.
And the Commercial fleet finally got a chance to set some nets near the Skeena, as DFO opened the North Coast Commercial fishery for a sixteen hour opening on Tuesday, a burst of activity that kept local processing plants busy through the week.
However, the story which dominated our list of five on the week comes from Watson Island and the latest update on plans by Pembina Pipelines for the development of their LPG shipment terminal.
