Interior Says Terminal, Water Usage Would Take Toll In Long Island Sound: "The Broadwater liquefied natural gas terminal proposed for Long Island Sound could kill millions of fish eggs and larvae annually and harm other aquatic organisms, federal environmental officials have told their colleagues at another federal agency.
In a letter submitted Thursday to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Department of the Interior's Office of Environmental Policy and Compliance said it is concerned that the floating terminal and the LNG tankers that supply it would kill many fish eggs and larvae when it takes in and discharges about 5.5 million gallons of water daily."
