Stacey McLaughlin talks about threats to Douglas County properties from eminent domain.
Stacey McLaughlin describes how it feels to have her home threatened with eminent domain by a foreign corporation, for the controversial Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline. The pipeline would ship fracked gas, as LNG, to Asia and would require a 100-foot wide clear cut for 230-miles through Oregon. We learn the 13-year history of the project, the 2016 denial by the Federal Government, and the foreign corporations refiling in 2017. Stacey has also filed a legal appeal against Douglas County permits allowing the pipeline through the Coastal Zone. We learn about the dangers of the project such as building the proposed export terminal on the earthquake subduction zone in Coos Bay. We find out where our politicians, such as Senator Merkley and Governor Brown stand on the project, and what we can do to express our views.
