Firm to appeal decision on Port of Seattle permit
SEATTLE (AP) — Foss Maritime plans to appeal Seattle’s position that Royal Dutch Shell can’t use the Port of Seattle’s Terminal 5 under the existing permit.
The company says it intends to provide its customer, Shell, with the services it needs to prepare to explore for oil in Alaska.
Royal Dutch Shell has been planning to base its fleet at Terminal 5 for six months each year when it’s not exploring for oil in the Arctic. But Seattle Mayor Ed Murray threw a wrench into those plans on Monday when he said the port can’t host Shell’s offshore Arctic fleet until it gets a new land-use permit.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
