From Scott:
Speaker to talk about W. Wyoming Gas Compression Station
Matt Walker from the Clean Air Council will give a
presentation on health issues regarding the proposed UGI Compressor Station and
pipelines on Wednesday, May 23, at p.m. at the West Wyoming Borough Building on
464 West 8th St. The Residents are urged to attend.
Matt will discuss the following topics:
Air Pollutants from Compressor Stations are Linked with Health Issues
Air Pollutants from Compressor Stations are Linked with Health Issues
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), Nitrous Oxides (NOx),
Formaldehyde, Methane
5 Dud Drilling Blowouts in Dallas spewing thousands of
gallons of Bentonite Clay, a cancer causing carcinogen into wetlands might occur
here as well.
Other Concerns
Noise: The engines at the station run constantly and can
be very loud, especially when releasing pressurized natural gas periodically to
change equipment
Odor: The pollutants emitted from engines have the
potential to create strong and unpleasant odors
Visible emissions: Stations have the potential to emit
dark plumes as a result of malfunctioning equipment
Also, Matt will discuss the new DEP regulations to
prevent public comment and file reviews what will take away the people's rights
to speak out against the industrialization of our community.
