Can The Shell Rig Come Back? Examiner Reconsiders City Decision
By CAROLYN ADOLPH: 13 August 2015
Shell’s Polar Pioneer, briefly a resident at the Port of Seattle’s Terminal 5, is drilling for oil in the Chukchi Sea. The question is whether the rig can return to Seattle this fall — and whether it can stay the winter.
The Port of Seattle and Foss Maritime Co. are appealing a city decision to try to stop the rig. A city examiner is hearing arguments about what should happen next.
In May, the City of Seattle’s planning department threatened fines and a lawsuit when it learned the Polar Pioneer would be taking up space at a cargo terminal.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
