Morrow Pacific project review announcement
The Corps of Engineers in Portland has announced it will seek an Environmental Assessment for the Port of Morrow project in Oregon. We consider this great news for the Morrow project, one of five coal export terminal projects the Alliance supports in the Northwest.
