Letter to the editor: Stop coal

The proposed Longview, WA Coal Terminal could bring eight 125 rail cars of dirty, toxic coal through the gorge every day for years. Coal dust is already polluting gorge lands and rivers, do we want more?

Now, until June 13, please comment online about this soon to be obsolete fossil fuel project: www.millennium

You can also join other residents standing up for the gorge to testify in person at a hearing in Pasco, Wash., on June 2. To reserve a spot in the van please email peter@gorgefriends.org or call 541-490-8473.
